Open Burning
Open Burning is the burning
of materials such as trees, brush, leaves, grass and other
debris where smoke and other emissions are released directly
into the air without passing through a chimney or stack. Air
pollution from open burning can cause serious health problems,
obscure visibility, or damage to the environment. Pima
County DEQ regulates opening burning to address these concerns.
Pima County DEQ rules require a permit for open burning; however, a permit is not required for certain types of open burning such as campfires, barbeques, and small fires for warmth.
