Welcome! May 10 through October 20
The FREE fire burn permit is required under Idaho law for any burning OUTSIDE city limits STATEWIDE (excluding campfires).
A video tutorial of how to self issue an IDL burn permit is available here: https://youtu.be/Qkoii540nak
It is YOUR responsiblity to have all the necessary permits, approvals, and notification in place for YOUR location prior to ignition.
Some cities and other jurisdictions - including local or county fire departments, Idaho DEQ, Tribal Reservations, and others - may have ADDITIONAL or alternate permit systems in place.
Escaped debris burning is the #1 cause of unwanted human caused wildfires. Do your part to prevent a wildfire start.
