East Peoria yard waste burning

East Peoria residents may begin burning dry leaves and yard waste Wednesday October 15th.  

Burning is permitted during daylight hours on non-windy days only. 

Small burning piles must be attended at all times by an adult and extinguished completely before leaving the site. 

Residents are encouraged to check with neighbors for health conditions exacerbated by smoke before lighting fires. 

East Peoria’s open burning season runs through November 30th.
