For all those continuing with cleanup from storms in Crow Wing County, the DNR reminds you to secure a debris burning permit before even lighting a match. Burning permits are for vegetative material only, such as brush, wood or grass but the permit does not allow buring of asphalt shingles, treated lumber or tires. Burning permits generally require burning in the evening hours after 6:00pm when winds calm and relative humidty increases. Some areas have allowed daytime burning due to the heayv storm cleanup when weather conditions work out. The DNR is asking residents to check conditions/restrictions online at the DNR website or contact your local DNR forestry office or local fire warden to make sure you are not in violation when burning debris from the strong storms.
