Burn Ban Reminder from the Village of Bath

Village of Bath / March 16, 2026

Starting tomorrow, March 16, 2026.

The Village of Bath, New York would like to remind residents that the New York State Burn ban starts March 16, 2026 and ends May 14, 2026


The annual New York State Burn Ban runs from March 16, 2026 through May 14, 2026. We’re sharing this early so everyone has time to plan ahead.


Even if there is still snow on the ground, the dead grass and brush underneath can dry out and ignite quickly. Spring winds can turn a small fire into a big problem fast.
Check out the link below for what is allowed and what is not allowed. When in doubt, do not burn.

Help us prevent brush fires and keep the Village of Bath, New York & surrounding areas safe.
