What this means
No countywide burn ban is on the books for Chicot County as of our last check (checked 3 hours ago). That's the county level: cities and fire districts can have their own rules, and a windy afternoon can change the county's answer overnight.
Rules change fast in dry weather — confirm with the Chicot County fire marshal or burn line before you light. The statewide list lives with Arkansas Department of Agriculture, Forestry Division.
