West Virginia's Spring Burn Ban: Key Rules & Enforcement
West Virginias spring fire season begins with stricter rules, including a daily burning ban from 5 p.m. to 7 a.m. until May. Key safety measures include maintaining a 10-foot clear zone, watching fires until theyre out, and using only plant materials. Spark-throwing machines need arrestors, and waste spots undergo annual cleanups. Commercial burns during off-hours require permits. With dozens of wildfires already burning over 200 acres, violators face fines and penalties. Forestry teams enforce stricter rules due to quick warm-ups drying out fuels rapidly, even after snow and cold snaps.
