A burn ban was recently lifted in North Carolina. Even when we're not in a burn ban, some outdoor burning is prohibited, according to the state Department of Environmental Quality, which enforces the state’s open burning rules. Phillip Jackson, with the N.C. Forest Service, joined Jeff Hamlin to discuss what is allowed after the ban was lifted.
