McAlister Excavating will conduct incinerator burning for about 10,000 cubic feet of tree waste at the city’s brush dump from December 22-January 1 with additional clean-up work taking place January 2-5.

A permit for the burning has been approved by the Indiana Department of Environmental Management and will be conducted according to permit requirements (attached below) and around the schedule of school activities.  No burning can take place while school is in session or when after school activities are taking place.
