The out-of-doors burning of paper and other burnable materials in, and the use of, incinerators prescribed by KIBC 8.35.030 must be not less than 15 feet from any structure and is subject to these rules and regulations:

A. Burning is allowed only between sunrise and sunset and when authorized by annual permit.

B. Burning is prohibited when wind speed is 15 knots or greater.

C. Burning of any material that gives off a dense or offensive smoke is prohibited; e.g., plastics, rubber, or petroleum products.

D. The burning of garbage and other slow-burning materials in incinerators is prohibited. It is the intent of this chapter to provide authority and prescribe an inexpensive-type incinerator to burn papers so as to readily burn and create as little fire hazard as possible. Nothing in this chapter is to be construed as advocating the burning of materials more suitably disposed of through available recycling programs.

E. Incinerators must be attended at all times when in use. [Ord. 97-15 §2, 1997. Formerly §8.30.040].
