In partnership with Cal-FIRE’s Lassen Modoc Unit, acting Susanville Fire Chief Tom Hernandez has lifted the suspension of all burn permits and open burning in the city effective today, October 5th.
Hernandez added that a Burn Suspension may be re-engaged in the event that adverse fire weather conditions return.
He advises that those possessing valid residential burn permits can resume burning on permissible burn days. Permissible burn days can be verified by contacting Air Pollution Control District line at 530-257-BURN (2876).
“Residents wishing to burn must have a valid burn permit in their possession, and all regulations must be followed.”
Burn permits can be issued at the Susanville Fire Department at 1505 Main Street with a check or money order, or the City of Susanville City Hall at 66 N. Lassen Street.
