Burn Bans

Restrictions on outdoor burning activities or "burn bans" can be ordered by any local fire chief for their respective jurisdiction, or may be imposed by the legislative body of a city, town or county. According to the 2014 Indiana Fire Code, Section 307.1.1, "The fire chief is authorized to require open burning be immediately discontinued if such open burning constitutes a hazardous condition." Burn Bans are reported to the Clark County Emergency Management Agency so the status of the burn ban can be placed on the Statewide Burn Ban Status Map .

Solid Waste Management District

The Clark County Solid Waste Management District oversees the county recycling programs, and may have answers to some of your special problem waste and disposal questions. 

Clark County Ordinance #1993-OR-34 established the mandatory recycling program in January, 1998. It is a law that all residents of Clark County (Sellersburg, Jeffersonville, and Clarksville) must pay the curb-side recycling fee if the resident participates or does not participate in the program. Each household in the curbside area incurs a yearly fee of $34.00, which is now included on the property tax statement.
