Outdoor Burning

Outdoor open burning permits are issued on a daily basis depending on weather conditions.  Please contact the North Kingstown Fire Department dispatcher at 401-294-3346 x7100 to request a burn permit.  It is best to call in the morning (after 7:30 AM) to request a permit for that day.  A representative of the fire department will come out to inspect the open burn for approval.  

Note: Outdoor burning of any kind is not permitted in spring (April/May) due to the high risk of brush fires.  Burn permits are typically not issued during these months.
