The “General Forest Fire Act” (N.J.S.A. 13:9 et. Al.) requires that before having any fire within a forested area, you must contact the nearest Forest Fire Service office to request a permit.

There is nothing like having a gathering of friends and family around a bonfire.

All applicants will be required to fill out and submit an FFP FirePit request form. All applicants will be responsible to obtain a fire permit from the NJFFS. An approved permit from the NJFFS must be provided to the township prior to approval of use.

Please see the document titled “NJFFS Recreational Fire Permit Information” for all information and instructions on obtaining a permit.
