The types of burning that generally apply to residents of Corvallis are open (or backyard) and recreational burning. Different sets of regulations apply to each classification.
The links on the left will lead you to information about these two types of burning.
Agricultural burning is allowed only on a permit basis within the City. This type of burning is limited to those who derive a substantial part of their income from using their land for agricultural or livestock purposes. Farmers and agriculturalists can burn outside the city limits on any day prescribed as a "burn day."
Development, land-clearing, construction debris burning, and the burning of garbage (including furniture) are not permitted at any time within the city or within a 6-mile boundary around the city (which includes the entire Fire District).
Bonfires require a permit and at least one inspection.
Please call the Fire Department at 541-766-6961 with any questions.
