Delaware County State of Emergency – Burn Ban
PRESS RELEASE
October 25, 2024
Under the authority granted by New York State Executive Law, Article 2-B, Section 24, Delaware County Chairman Tina Mole has issued a State of Emergency and instituted a county-wide burn ban effective 12:00 PM October 25, 2024 and continuing until rescinded by the Chairman of the Board.
A prolonged lack of rainfall has caused abnormally dry environmental conditions, and extended forecasting shows the lack of precipitation to continue at least over the next few days. Conditions include dry ground cover which has increased substantially with the time of year, leading to a significantly elevated risk of wildfires. Therefore, in the interest of public safety, a county-wide burn ban is being instated.
The very dry environmental conditions exist, leading to the rapid spread of any open
fires. This burn ban is in effect for all open burning, including, but not limited to campfires, brush piles, burn barrels, woodstove ash dumping, leaf/yard debris, and
torches or other devices containing an open flame.
Failure to obey this order is a criminal offense to wit; Class B misdemeanor, punishable by law under the NYS Executive Law, Article 2-B.
