A burn waiver can be granted for fires larger than a recreational fire, such as for a flag ceremony, event bonfire, or storm debris cleanup. 

Permitted fires can be more than 2'x3' but no larger than 1000 cubic feet (10'x10'x10') and burn only clean natural wood material. 

Permittees must follow all state and local open burning rules, which are summarized on the permit.

New and current permit holders can submit a request to climate@evansville.in.gov or call (812) 435-6145 to receive a permit.  Please allow at least 3 business days advance notice before your intended burn date.
