OPEN BURNING
Open burning season begins on Monday, January 15, 2007 and continues until 4:00 PM, May 1, 2007.
Anyone wishing to burn brush in Wellfleet must obtain a permit in advance from the Wellfleet Fire Department. The fee for the permit is $10. Burning may be done between 10 AM and 4 PM.
You must call the Fire Department at 508-349-3754 between 9:00 and 11:00 AM on any day you want to burn.
You will be asked for your permit number, and if the weather conditions allow, you will be given permission to burn on that day only. If weather conditions change during the day, the Fire Department reserves the right to call and order that all fires be extinguished.
Complete regulations for open burning are attached to the open burning permit. Please read the regulations carefully. Violation of the regulations will void the permit, and may result in revocation of your permit by any fire department official.
You may download the application for an open burning permit. Please print 2 copies, fill in both copies of the application, and bring them to the Fire Department along with the $10 fee. Applications will be processed between 9 AM and 5 PM daily. Please bring either the exact amount in cash, or a check made out to the Town of Wellfleet. Open burning permit applications are also available at the Fire Department.
