Please be advised:

Due to the continued high fire risk and dry weather conditions across New Jersey, the Summit Fire Department is advising residents to refrain from using any type of fireworks, sparklers, or any open flames during the celebration of Diwali this week, as they can easily spark brush fires in these dry conditions. We thank you for your cooperation and respect of these restrictions to ensure public safety during the festive season.

Stage 3 Fire Restrictions remain in effect statewide in New Jersey, which prohibits all fires in wooded areas unless contained in an elevated stove using only propane, natural gas, gas, or electricity. No charcoal fires are allowed.

More information is available on the City of Summit website.
