Fire Permits Required
Sandwich Forest Fire Warden, Jim Mykland, writes: Fire permits are now required for all outside burning. With a permit you may burn allowable materials between 5 PM and 9 AM. Allowable materials are brush smaller than 5 inches in diameter and unpainted, untreated wood (No pressure treated wood, nothing with paint, stain or varnish) no lather than 5 inches. That's it, no building debris, no metal, no insulation. The pile has to be attended whenever you are burning and it has to be extinguished when you are finished or by 9 am. Do not leave it to go out be itself.
Permits can be obtained at the Town Hall during normal business hours, at the Fire Station when there is someone there or on-line anytime at www.nhdfl.org, just follow the links. An on-line permit will cost $3.00. Please use common sense and don't burn on dry, windy days even if you have a permit. The weather changes quickly in the spring. Remember you are liable for extinguishment costs if the fire escapes your control. Any questions, please contact Jim at 603-284-6450. Be safe out there!
For your convenience, Ben Adriance at 368 Whiteface Road is now issuing fire permits for brush burning. This is the house just north of the Whiteface Fire Station on Rt. 113A. For seasonal permits please continue to contact me. Permits are also available at the Town Hall during business hours or at the Fire Station if someone is there. Permits are also available on-line, for a fee, through the NH Division of Forests and Lands. Jim Mykland, Forest Fire Warden,603-284-6450
