Before doing any open burning, you must obtain a burn registration number (available at no charge by calling 1 888 797-1717). You must also check current weather conditions and the venting index to ensure that it’s safe to burn in your area. The venting index is a measure of the atmosphere’s ability to disperse airborne pollutants, such as smoke from a fire.
