Questions about burning in Alger County

Is there a burn ban in Alger County today?

Partial. Michigan Department of Natural Resources lists Alger County as “Burning restrictions today (vary by township)”. Status checked Oct 13, 12:18 PM EDT.

Can I burn trash or brush in Alger 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 Michigan?

The DNR decides each morning (by 10 am Eastern) whether debris burning is allowed in the northern Lower Peninsula and the Upper Peninsula, county by county and sometimes township by township. In southern Michigan the DNR does not issue burn permits online: local fire departments and townships decide.

Where does this information come from?

From Michigan Department of Natural Resources'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 Alger County offices or your local fire department before burning.
