BURN BAN RESCINDED - Sept. 25, 2023

  On September 25, 2023, the burn ban for Rusk County was lifted.  As of September 25, the Keetch-Byram Drought Index average remains at 600 following recent rains.  A burn ban may be reinstated in October dependent on future conditions.  Extreme caution is urged when burning as unattended fires can still get out of hand quickly.  Damage to neighbors property or injury to others due to irresponsible burning may result in citation or arrest.
