If you're fortunate to live in or visit the Estes Valley, you are spending time in the Wildland-Urban Interface (WUI). The below resources can aid you in protecting your home from the threat of wildfire and help us all be better stewards of our environment.

Please refer to each agency's website for the most current information. If you are covered by two districts with differing restrictions (e.g. Estes Valley Fire and Unincorporated Larimer County), the highest level of restrictions apply. 

1. Access the burn permit application online from Larimer County Department of Health and Environment (LCDHE) or call 498-6775 for assistance. Digital photos can be uploaded to assist in the review and approval process avoiding a possible site inspection. A permit must be renewed each year.
