Fayette County's

outdoor burning ban is about to begin again.

During the

ban, all outdoor burning of lawn debris will be prohibited. Burning of

debris from land clearing for development projects will also be prohibited

during the ban.

The ban will

be lifted again in October.

The ban was

instituted to help improve air quality in the metro Atlanta region, which

has been designated as a "serious" nonattainment area for ground-level

ozone, a major component of smog.

The area's

poor air quality has been blamed for a variety of health ailments and

also impacts the environment, officials have said.
