Burn Permits
Our Burning Permit application has changed. We are now using Warden's Report as our Burning Permit System. You can find instructions on how to apply for a permit here.
NARRAGANCETT POINT (BEACH FIRE PIT) - You MUST come into the Fire Station on the day that you wish to have a fire at the fire rings provided at Narragansett Point. A maximum of 2 permits daily will be allowed on a first come first served basis. Phone calls will not be permitted.
-- Burn permits are issued from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., Monday through Friday and 9:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. on Saturday and Sunday at Kennebunk Fire Rescue in the front lobby. Please call 207-604-1354 for Class Day or the Warden's Report. Kennebunk is located in Zone 10.
No more than fifteen [15] permits shall be issued daily, Monday through Friday. On Saturdays, Sundays and holidays the number of permits issued may be increased by the Duty Chief, weather and staff levels permitting, and will be issued by either a firefighter or the Duty Chief.
Burning may not start until after 9:00 a.m. and must be finished by 11:00 p.m.
-- Seasonal permits for cooking fires are available. Seasonal campfires will require the permit holder to check on the class day before burning. Burning will be permitted on Class Level Low or Moderate days only. Please call the Duty Officer at 207- 604-1354 to obtain one of these permits. (Please leave a message should no one answer. Your call will be returned. The Captains may be on a call or dealing with other things during the day. Thank you for your understanding.)
All burn permits are for clean wood products only, and piles are to be kept small (i.e., 3’ diameter piles). Burning of highly combustible materials and/or domestic, household trash such as paper and cardboard is prohibited by law.
These permit policies are recommended standards, suggested by the Maine Forest Service. These policies are in place to protect life and property and help the Fire Department in controlling the possibility of fires getting out of control. If you have any questions concerning these policies, please feel free to contact the Kennebunk Fire Rescue.
