Following a recommendation from County Fire Marshal Scott Raven, the Hays County Commissioners Court reinstated the burn ban for the unincorporated areas of the County, effective immediately. Most cities already have standing ordinances against outdoor burning.
When the burn ban is in effect, all outdoor burning, even in burn barrels with or without lids, is prohibited. Food grills with lids are allowed, but grill masters are encouraged to keep a water source nearby, and to never leave a grill unattended until coals are cool.
In determining whether a burn ban is called for, the Fire Marshal’s Office reviews reports from several sources and consults with local fire chiefs.
