Somerset County under outdoor burning ban

Posted

PRINCESS ANNE — Somerset County went under an outdoor burning ban effective today, Wednesday, April 22 and it remains in effect until sufficient rainfall is received.

County Commissioner President Charles Laird issued the order based on the advisement of the fire chiefs.

The ban applies to all outdoor ignition sources, including campfires, bonfires, fireworks, leaf, brush, grass and trash burning and other similar methods of open incineration.

Cooking with contained barbecue grills and charcoal grills are still permissible.
