4 PM Burning Law

Virginia’s 4 PM Burning Law is in effect from February 15 through April 30 each year. It is important to note that some localities may have even more restrictive regulations on outdoor burning than the state’s 4 PM Burning Law.

All burners are encouraged to check with their locality before starting any outdoor burning.
