Outdoor Burning Restrictions
The following rules govern all burning, whether a written permit is required or not:
- No outdoor burning is allowed when the Gwinnett County Fire Marshal’s Office determines that it is a “NO BURN” day due to atmospheric conditions or local circumstances that make outdoor burning hazardous. This information is updated daily by 9:00am and can be found at GwinnettFireMarshal.com or by calling 678.518.4979. If outdoor burning is restricted, the conditions are also listed online.
- Burning yard debris is prohibited on Sundays and at night. Compliant bonfires, cooking fires, and recreational fires in chimneys and outdoor fireplaces may be used at these times provided all other criteria and restrictions are applied.
- Fires must be constantly attended by a competent person until extinguished. Equipment capable of extinguishing the fire, such as a garden hose connected to a water supply, must be readily available for use.
- Burning yard debris is limited to leaves, limbs, etc., that fall on a person’s own property.
- Burning solid waste and household garbage is prohibited.
- Burning any material that emits heavy dark smoke (rubber products, oils, roofing material, petroleum-based products, etc.) is prohibited.
- Burning when smoke presents a health hazard to people in the vicinity of the fire is prohibited. A Medical Burn Ban shall not supersede the exceptions noted by the Georgia Environmental Protection Division and shall be in accordance with the Gwinnett County Fire Prevention and Protection Ordinance.
- Burning within 20 feet of flammable, combustible, or explosive materials is prohibited unless otherwise specified by the Fire Marshal’s office or by the fire code.
- The Fire Marshal’s office and Fire and Emergency Services personnel have the authority to summarily abate any conditions which are in violation of any of these provisions, and which may constitute an immediate threat to life and property.
