NO FIREWORKS ON FRYE ISLAND BY LAW!

 
Speed Limit

Speed limit on Island is 20 MPH on all roads, and is strictly enforced!

No Open Burning Allowed on the Island

In order to help prevent a fire-related disaster, outdoor wood fires must be contained in a screened enclosure designed for that use, such as a covered fire pit or chiminea with a covering screen. The device must stand on sand, dirt or patio type material such as pavers or crushed stone, in a wide-open area to prevent any spread of fire. The fire pit must be continuously monitored by an adult and a fire extinguisher, charged hose or bucket of water must be nearby. Please help keep the Island safe from fires.  Do not burn on days of Extreme Danger.  Maine Wildfire Danger Report
