For Moultonborough residents: Why does the class/category 2 burning permit only allow for burning between 5 at night and 9 in the morning? Anyone know the answer?

A couple of reasons why you can only burn at night in NH.
Weather conditions are favorable for fire spread during daytime hours. Lower humidity, higher temps, winds, etc. Another reason is in NH you have mostly rural volunteer fire departments. Most volunteers work days and response time can be delayed. Hope that helps. |

With permit you can burn during the day if raining. And that can be a light sprinkle. Not necessarily pouring rain.

Always good to show some courtesy to neighbors when you burn.
When I start burning,I keep the hose handy so I can put it out in case the wind changes and takes the smoke to my neighbors. Also people visiting from states that don't allow burning are apt to freak if they see smoke in the woods,not knowing that it's being managed........so I always post my permit right on the road so people walking and driving by can see it. |

You need a permit for all outdoor fires including a cooking fire. Stop by your local fire dept.

The requirement comes from NH state law - NH Administrative Rules RES-5601.04(a)(7)(b).

![]() This wasn't in New Hampshire, but we also had a volunteer Fire Department, whose own station would have been threatened had the winds changed course. Fortunately, the winds must have been right, and the fire slowly smoked down and died. A development later went in, putting asphalt hither and yon, but seems to have failed after only two houses were built. Interesting about the "seasonal permit". Is there a fee for it? ![]() |

So how do you get a seasonal permit in Moultonborough? The station isn't always manned by someone is it? Is there a cost?

It is, to me, a wise thing to do. Some of the permit fires end up being pretty large, and would seem to have the capability to easily get out of control.
