Once burn restrictions are in place it is still possible to have a warming fire in the Chester Fire Prevention District. The following are suggestions to follow for a safe event. These guidelines are only for the residences in Chester.
The fire must be small. It is for "warming" or cooking
Must have at least 4' of non-combustibles around the fire pit or ring
Should be in a nonflammable container or in an indenture in the ground lined with rock
This is not for burning debris, pinecones, pine needles or trash
There needs to be a water source close by
There needs to be an adult in attendance
When done the fire needs to be "cold" out. That means when you touch the coals they are cold
If it is a liquid fuel source fire pit, be sure the fuel is turned off when it is unattended
This is done on your own property
