Burn Ban

Check Williamson County's Burn Ban Page Before Outdoor Burning

Outdoor burning rules can change quickly with drought, wind, and wildfire conditions. Williamson County maintains a burn ban status page for unincorporated areas, so do not rely on what a neighbor did last week.

The county's burn-ban page tells residents to use caution, follow state regulations, contact the local fire department because a permit may be required, and call Williamson County Communications to report the burn. The county's Outdoor Burning page also points residents to state and county burning guidance.

Before burning brush, construction debris, or pasture material, check the current county page and your local fire department. Inside city limits, city fire code or city ordinances may be stricter than county guidance.
