Lincoln Co. Commissioners pass emergency resolution for wood stoves Permit for sole source of heat for home by Duane Williams, KLCB-KTNY Radio December 16, 2010 The Lincoln County Commissioners have approved and emergency resolution that if an air quality alert is called restricting the burning of wood stoves, many people, including elderly residents, with only wood stoves for heat and the risk of serious health dangers, will be able to obtain an operating permit for a standard catalytic, or standard non-catalytic, solid fuel burning device that has been confirmed as providing the sole source of heat for the home. Validation as a sole source will allow that device to be used during an air pollution alert, subject to the smoke discharge limitations. This ordinance will take effect immediately and be in effect for the next 90 days. _______________________________________________ Story by Duane Williams, KLCB-KTNY Radio, www.todaysbestcountryonline.com, e-mail: klcb@frontiernet.net.
