Vancouver, WA – The Clark County Fire Marshal’s Office is taking applications for at least four retail fireworks permits to be assigned by lottery to be held on Feb. 12.

Fireworks cannot be sold in Clark County without a permit.

“One permit will be issued through the lottery, and more could become available if they are not retained by current holders,” said Fire Marshal Jon Dunaway.

Applications for the permit lottery can be obtained at the Fire Marshal’s Office, 505 N.W. 179th St., Ridgefield or on the county website at clark.wa.gov/community-development/fireworks. Only one completed application may be entered per person or organization.

All lottery permit applications must be received at the Fire Marshal’s Office no later than 5 p.m., Feb. 10, 2016, regardless of how they are submitted.

Applications may delivered or mailed to the Fire Marshal’s Office, 505 N.W. 179th St., Ridgefield or faxed to (360) 397-2076. Applications postmarked on Feb. 10 will not qualify.

Applicants chosen by lottery will be contacted immediately.
