Obtaining a Campfire Permit

Campfire Permits must be obtained directly through the CAL FIRE web page and campfires are only allowed in a properly screened wood-burning outdoor fireplace or chiminea approved by Meeks Bay Fire.

• No burning is allowed on Red Flag Warning Days.
• You will be required to watch an introductory video prior to completing the application. 
• Once you have completed your application you will be required to print the permit. The permit will not be valid if it is not printed and signed.
• Renters must have written and signed authorization from the property owner in their possession in order to obtain a permit and have a fire. You must keep your permit on you at all times during a campfire. 
• You are required to follow all Fire Season Restrictions.

• There must be a responsible adult in attendance with a shovel until the fire is dead out.
• There must be a water supply.
• No campfires shall be undertaken unless weather conditions (particularly wind) are such that burning can be considered safe.
• In case of emergency, call 911.
