During the COVID-19 Pandemic, the Easton Fire Marshal’s office enacted a moratorium on all outside burning. This action was done in order to reduce the Fire Department’s responses during the pandemic.  Based the Phase I Opening of the State, campfires, outdoor fireplaces and fire pit burning activities may resume in Easton.  These activities are not regulated per se by the Easton Fire Marshal. Nuisance smoke will cause the fire department to shut down these recreational activities sa that is regulated by the State Department of Energy and Environmental Protection.  Open Burning permits of Brush on Residential Property in Easton will be permitted on a phased-in basis.  Residents who already have a permit may follow the customary rules and start to burn brush. The conditions found on the burning permit must be strictly complied with or the permit will be revoked by the Fire Marshal.  Any applicant who has already applied for an Open Burning Permit and has not yet picked up the completed permit up from the fire department will be sent the completed permit in the US Mail by June 1st.
