Restrictions apply from October 31 through March 31
The graphic above shows expected air quality conditions
for the Denver metro area. During the winter high pollution season
(October 31 through March 31) the graphic indicates whether an air quality
Action Day is currently in effect. During an air quality Action Day,
residential burning is restricted in the seven-county Denver-metro area,
including Denver, Boulder, Broomfield, Douglas, Jefferson, and areas west
of Kiowa Creek in Adams and Arapahoe counties. The only exceptions to the
residential burning restrictions are for people living above 7,000 feet;
those who use Colorado Phase III (Phase II EPA) certified stoves, Colorado
approved pellet stoves, approved masonry heaters or those whose stoves or
fireplaces are their primary source of heat. For more information on
residential burning restrictions follow the links below.
Residents are also asked to voluntarily limit driving on
Action Days.
On days that are not air quality Action Days, no
restrictions are in place.
