The rule today
A burn ban is in effect in 66 of Arkansas's 75 counties. The Arkansas Department of Agriculture Forestry Division's official Wildfire Danger & Burn Bans map, generated September 1, 2026 at 3:46 PM, lists 66 counties under a burn ban — among them Pulaski, Benton, Washington, Sebastian, Garland and Craighead — and rates 62 counties HIGH wildfire risk and the other 13 MODERATE, with no county rated Low. Arkansas has no statewide burn ban mechanism; bans are issued county-by-county by county judges and are lifted the same way, so the list changes often. Check the Forestry Division's live Fire Info map for your county before burning.
