FIRE WOOD

Indiana Dept. Natural Resources is trying to stop the spread of Emerald Ash Borer, an exotic insect that kills ash trees. Because this pest is found in the bark of firewood, if the facility you are visiting allows a fire please burn all firewood completely to help avoid spreading the insect.

It is against State and Federal laws to transport firewood (other than pine) from quarantined areas. No firewood may be carried over the Michigan State Line into Indiana. Firewood also may not be carried into any park or reservoir from the following counties in Ohio: Lucas, Fulton, Henry, Wood, and Paulding.

Firewood must also not be brought into any park or reservoir from the following counties in Indiana: Lagrange and Steuben. All firewood must be burned prior to leaving any property and not left behind for other campers.
