Open Burning: The Chippewa Fire District does follow the recommendations of the WI DNR for Protected Areas for all daily burning restriction, approved hours to burn, and what is allowed to be burned. For Agricultual Zoned Property see the Chippewa Fire District Burning Regulation below for changes based on the municipality you live in.
Please note the following:
There is no burning on Sundays or Holidays.
No burning is allowed on Commercial Zoned Properties unless a variance has been issued by your municipality.
If you would like to burn outside of recommendations for that day, you will need to contact the Fire District for a special permit which will require a site inspection prior to burning. Site Inspection will check the area for safety, proper clearances, materials to be burned, and weather conditions. For Residual Zone Properties, there is a fee for this inspection
