Whenever a RED FLAG WARNING is triggered for\u00a0 Stutsman, Open Burning Ordinance burning restrictions to go into effect.\u00a0<\/strong> The ordinance itself is in effect 365 days a year.\u00a0 However, the ordinance restricts burning only when the Fire Danger Rating for Stutsman County is in the \u201cVERY HIGH\u201d or \u201cEXTREME\u201d categories or if a \u201cRED FLAG WARNING\u201d has been issued by the National Weather Service.<\/p>\n Even though today\u2019s Fire Danger Rating is in the MODERATE category, the issuance of the RED FLAG WARNING takes precedence. When burning restrictions are in effect, the ordinance dictates that NO burning is permitted within Stutsman County. This includes starting, conducting, allowing, maintaining, or soliciting any open burn activities.<\/p>\n Violations of the open burning ordinance will be enforced.\u00a0 A violation is a Class B misdemeanor, for which a maximum penalty of 30 days in jail, a fine of $1,500.00 or both may be imposed.<\/p>\n This ordinance is in effect in all of Stutsman County including its incorporated cities that do not have their own open burning ordinances.\u00a0 The ordinance does not include the City of Jamestown which has its own ordinances relating to burning.<\/p>\n The daily Fire Danger Rating can be found either by going to the Stutsman County website at www.co.stutsman.nd.us<\/a> and clicking on the green \u201cFire Danger\u201d icon at the top of the page, or by calling the Stutsman County Communications Center at 701-252-1000.\u00a0 A full version of the burn ordinance can also be found at the County website under Departments, choose Zoning, and click on \u201cBurn Ban Ordinance\u201d on the left-hand side of the page.\u00a0 Information regarding RED FLAG WARNINGS can be found by going to the Bismarck National Weather Service website at https:\/\/www.weather.gov\/bis\/#<\/a>.<\/p>\n Stutsman County information<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Forecast\u2026.<\/p>\n .TONIGHT\u2026Decreasing clouds.
