πŸ”Š Listen Β· narrated by Aiden

Pierce County Fire Marshal, in coordination with local fire chiefs, will elevate the burn ban to Stage 2 starting Monday, August 17, 2026.

Stage 2 restrictions prohibit all outdoor burning in Puyallup, including campfires, fire pits, and bonfires. This includes areas within the city limits and surrounding Pierce County communities. The ban aims to reduce wildfire risk during high fire danger conditions.

The ban will remain in effect until conditions improve, with updates to be provided by Central Pierce Fire & Rescue through their website and social media channels.
