June 14, 2012 Colorado Bans Personal Fireworks
June 14, 2012 - Colorado Bans Personal Fireworks - Due to dry conditions and fire danger, Colorado Governor John Hickenlooper signed a ban on private use of fireworks and open fire burning statewide.
Commercial, professional and municipal firework displays are allowed, if the county sheriff has given written approval. The ban does not apply to campfires in constructed, permanent fire pits in campground and recreation sites.
Liquid-fueled or gas-fueled stoves, fireplaces within buildings, charcoal grills at private residences and controlled burns for agricultural or irrigation purposes are also still permitted under the ban.
This was enacted to lessen the number of wildfires. So far there have been 344 wildfires in the state.
