Tarrant County Burn Ban

Tarrant County commissioners lifted a burn ban today, but fireworks are a still no go for the 4th of July.
Although, outdoor burning is allowed again, the county still forbids burning at night or when the wind speed is more than 20 mph. Only brush, tree limbs, grass clippings and leaves must be burned and water must be available at all times.

The burn ban has been in place since Jan. 15 by Burleson Mayor Ken Shetter because of high winds and dry conditions. The ban was lifted because of the heavy rains Tarrant County has seen this March.
