Fall Fire Season, which lasts from Oct. 1 to Dec. 31, imposes heavier restrictions on fire-related activities across the Mountain State. 12 News spoke with West Virginia State Fire Academy Director Mark Lambert about what people should think about during this time.
“The main thing is to be cautious and to use your common sense and not burn when the wind is blowing 50 miles per hour or not burn when they’re saying it’s bad conditions to burn. Just follow the rules and if you think you shouldn’t, then probably you shouldn’t,” Lambert said.
During Fall Fire Season, outdoor burning can only take place between 5 p.m. and 7 a.m. Fires are also not to be left unattended and must be fully extinguished after use.
Taking care of fire can impact personal finance as well, violation of fire burning law could cost up to $1000. Any damages a person caused by improper fire care can lead to even more consequences.
“You’re responsible for any damage it does as well as paying people to put it out,” Lambert said.
