MIDDLEBURG — Significantly dry weather is causing one Valley county to take drastic measures. Snyder County is instituting a ban on open burning effective Friday, September 30 at 4 p.m. County Commissioners voted Tuesday to put the ban in place for at least 30 days.
Open burning is considered burning of any combustible material outdoors in either a burn barrel, fire ring, or on the ground. (Jennifer Wakeman/Alex Reichenbach)
