CATATAN
PEMBAKARAN HANYA DIBENARKAN APABILA BACAAN INDEKS KUALITI UDARA (API) TIDAK MELEBIHI 100. SEBELEM MELAKUKAN PEMBAKARAN, JABATAN ALAM SEKITA PERLU DIHUBUNGI UNTUK MENDAPATKAN BACAAN INI

1.Pembakaran di kawasan pertanian untuk kawalan serangga dan penyakit- pengesahan daripada Jabatan Pertanian- tumbuhan yang dijangkiti perlu dikeringkan sebelum di bakar- pembakaran antara jam 1.00 tengah hari hingga 6.00 petang- sentiasa diawasi- tidak menggunakan tayar lama, getah, plastik, minyak atau bahan yang mengeluarkan asap hitam untuk memulakan pembakaran- pembakaran hanya pada hari yang tidak hujan-dilakukan jauh dari jalan dan jalan utama- memastikan asap daripada pembakaran tidak menimbulkan kacauganggu kepada penduduk berhampiran dan tidak mengganggu jarak penglihatan biasa- tidak boleh dilakukan sekiranya bacaan API daripada stesen kawalan terdekat mempunyai bacaan melebihi 100Freshly cut wood contains up to 80% moisture, and must be "seasoned" (dried to 20-25% moisture content) before burning. Wood containing more than 25% moisture is "wet" or "green", and should never be burned in a fireplace or woodstove. If exposed to rain, a fallen tree will wet-rot before it ever dries enough to be used for fuel. To properly season firewood, cut it into stove-sized pieces and stack it so air can circulate and carry away the moisture as it evaporates through both ends of each piece. The woodpile must be sheltered to prevent rainwater from being re-absorbed, which reverses the drying process: firewood that is exposed to rain will rapidly become just as wet as it was when freshly cut. Wood must be cut into pieces and stacked out of the rain for at least 6-9 months to season properly. If no seasoned wood can be found, high-density compressed sawdust logs make an excellent substitute. Avoid burning mill ends in woodstoves, as the exhaust from even "untreated" mill ends has shown itself to be tremendously corrosive to metal.
