After you complete and submit this form, you will receive a completed copy of the permit back to the email that you entered. Simply retain a copy of this form that is easily accessible if requested. This may be in either printed or electronic form.
You will still need to call 517-647-4111 prior to burning to be sure burning is being allowed that day. Burning bans may be temporarily in effect due to weather conditions.

This form has been approved and no further contact with the department is needed, except to ensure burning is permitted by calling 517-647-4111 prior to burning.
