Fire pit rules in Liberty Township, OH β also called outdoor burning, recreational fire, or open flame ordinances β cover fuel types, clearances, and when burning is allowed.
Recreational fire pits in Butler County follow state open-burning rules enforced by the Southwest Ohio Air Quality Agency. Bonfires and campfires are allowed with no permit if they burn only clean, seasoned firewood, aren't used for waste disposal, and stay no larger than 3 feet by 3 feet.
Butler County is served by the Southwest Ohio Air Quality Agency (Hamilton County Environmental Services), which enforces Ohio EPA open-burning rules (OAC Chapter 3745-19). Recreational fires - bonfires, campfires, and outdoor fireplace equipment - are permitted everywhere, including restricted areas, without a permit or notification and with no minimum setback, provided the fire is composed only of clean, seasoned firewood, is not set for waste disposal, and does not exceed 3 feet by 3 feet. Larger or waste-disposal fires face additional rules. Your city or township fire department may impose stricter local limits, so confirm locally.
Burning prohibited materials or exceeding the recreational-fire size can be reported to the agency (513-946-7777) and may draw Ohio EPA enforcement with substantial civil penalties.
