Bill > HB1141

This bill clarifies that local governments, rather than the state air quality control commission or the department of public health and environment, have the authority to regulate burning in burn barrels. Burning in burn barrels is permitted unless prohibited by a local government, and local governments can enact regulations to allow and control such burning. The bill also specifies that burning in burn barrels is not considered "open burning" and does not constitute the operation of an incinerator, which are subject to different state-level regulations.
