(a) “Open burning” means the burning of any materials where air contaminants resulting from combustion are emitted directly into the air without passing through a stack or chimney from an enclosed chamber. For purposes of this definition, an enclosed chamber is one which has only those ducts, stacks or chimneys necessary to provide combustion air and to permit the escape of exhaust gas. The burning of any materials in metal cans, barrels, containers, wire baskets or any home-made device is open burning. The burning of materials in incinerator is governed by the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency Regulation 3745-17-09.
(b) “Garbage” means any matter resulting from the handling, processing, preparation, cooking and consumption of food or food products.
(c) “Landscape waste” means any vegetable or plant matter except garbage including trees, tree trimmings, branches, stumps, brush, weeds, leaves, grass, shrubbery, yard trimmings and crop residues.
