Phillips County Sheriff's Report for October 23, 2017

Please remember to file a new burn permit for the 2017 year. If you plan on doing any burning in 2017, please file one BEFORE you start to burn. These permits are good for all of 2016 and you only have to file one a year, not every time you burn. All 2016 permits will no longer be valid after December 31, 2016. Thank you!
