Questions about burning in Kenton County
Is there a burn ban in Kenton County today?

Can I burn trash or brush in Kenton County?
No burn ban is reported, but you still have to follow state and local outdoor-burning rules (permits, burn hours, what may be burned), stay with the fire and keep water nearby. Cities and fire districts can ban burning on their own.
Who issues burn bans in Kentucky?
County judge-executives issue local burn bans (KRS 149.401) and the Division of Forestry lists the ones it hears about, so a new ban can be missing here. During forest fire hazard seasons (February 15 to April 30 and October 1 to December 15) burning within 150 feet of woods or brush is illegal from 6 am to 6 pm everywhere in Kentucky.
Where does this information come from?
From Kentucky Division of Forestry's official county burn-ban map, refreshed every hour on Burn Ban Today, plus Red Flag Warnings from the National Weather Service. Confirm with the Kenton County offices or your local fire department before burning.
