Henderson County holds off on burn ban
Body
HENDERSON COUNTY–Commissioners’ Court of Henderson County discussed burn ban conditions Oct. 11 but decided not to implement an open-fire prohibition with chances of rain in the forecast.
County Fire Marshal Shane Renberg said some counties to the south of Henderson County have implemented a burn ban. He also said Henderson County averaged 587 on the Keetch-Byram Drought Index as of Oct. 10, technically exceeding the 575 threshold for considering a burn ban.
