The Donley County Commissioners’ Court enacted a burn ban during its regular meeting Monday.
The ban prohibits the burning of trash, controlled burns, and open pit fires. It does not include covered barbecue grills.
The county says the ban will be in effect until the currently extremely dry conditions improve.
A violation of the ban is a Class C misdemeanor and is punishable by a fine up to $500.
