Wisconsin DNR issues burning permits in 13 counties from Oct 15 due to dry conditions and wildfire risks.
The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (DNR) requires burning permits in 13 counties due to ongoing dry conditions and heightened wildfire risks, effective October 15. Permits are necessary for burning in barrels, debris piles, and grassy or wooded areas, except when snow-covered. Campfires for cooking or warmth do not need permits, but caution is advised. The DNR's prescribed burn program is on hold until conditions improve significantly.
