Fireworks activities increase this time of year, and before you make purchases there are things you should consider. The National Fire Protection Association reports that there are more fires reported on July 4th than any other day in the year and that half of them are because of fireworks. Kentucky state law prohibits any item that produces a report, or has wings or fins intended to cause the device to fly, unless a display permit is obtained. Any device that has the terms “explosive,” “emits flaming pellets,” “flaming balls,” “fire*******,” “report,” or “rocket,” is illegal for the public to possess, sell or use in Kentucky.
A city of Elizabethtown ordinance details the requirements for those wishing to sell or use “display” fireworks and this information is available by calling the fire department at (270) 765-2121. Retail stands, wholesalers and all who wish to use “display” fireworks must have a permit and are inspected by fire department officials. Most people are unlikely to qualify for a permit in the area of training, and they often don’t have sufficient space for a compliant display. More...
