Chester County Burning Ban

This evening during an emergency meeting, the Chester County Commissioners declared a ban on open burning for all residents and businesses in Chester County, which will take effect at 5pm on Sunday, October 27, 2024.

The temporary 30-day ban is based on current and forecasted weather conditions, as well as the recent increase in brush fires across the County.

Wildfire potential is currently very high throughout Chester County due to the combination of drought, dry fuels, winds, and fluctuating temperatures.

All open burning, as defined in the ATTACHED RESOLUTION.

This banned until Monday, November 25, 2024.
