2025-09-09T10:00:00 2025-09-09T11:00:00 What Local Leaders Need to Know About the State's Burning Regulations

Burning regulations can be confusing! Local officials around the state often deal with questions and complaints from residents related to fire pits, leaf and trash burning, and outdoor wood-fired boilers.

EGLE has multiple regulations dealing with what can and cannot be burned, as well as who can and cannot burn. Additionally, there are several state agencies who work together to handle burning complaints, but these agencies do not handle enforcement of all burning rules. For instance, outdoor wood burners and residential trash burning issues are handled by the local municipality.

After registering, you will receive an email from "EGLE Outreach" with a link for you to use to join the webinar.

Accommodations deadline: individuals needing language assistance or accommodations for effective participation should contact Joel Roseberry, RoseberryJ@Michigan.gov by Aug 29 to request language, mobility, visual, hearing, translation, and/or other assistance.
