Even though rain is forecast for the weekend, it won’t be enough! Burn bans for Carroll and Montgomery Counties are still in place.

What is Allowed During a Burn Ban

Propane/Gas grills
Propane/Gas heaters
Charcoal grills
Use these items as described by their manufacturer, safely away from combustible materials, and never left unattended. Dispose of them properly after use.

Charcoal grill briquettes are of great concern. After use, always let the coals cool completely and douse in water before disposing of them in a metal container. The residual ash should be cold to the touch before disposal.
