(a) It is the responsibility of each landowner requesting to conduct burning activities to request, complete, and return the appropriate forms to the YTEP/YTFP Smoke Management Office. Field registration is required for all wildland, timber, or agricultural lands for which one-time burning is planned; field registration is also required for brush pile burning where piles are greater than five feet in diameter. Registration fees will be assessed based upon the acreage to be burned. Field registration is an application for a burn permit.

(b) A sample field registration form can be found in YTC 21.10.460. Registration forms can be obtained by contacting:

(c) It is important to note that registration does not constitute an authorization to burn. The Tribe’s SMC issues burn authorizations, which are valid pursuant to a daily burn determination. A burn determination is made after weather assessments have been conducted for a given day. [Plan § 5.2, adopted, 10/1/2003.]
