Texas Firework Laws and Regulations
Everything is bigger in Texas, including the love for fireworks. But before you light that fuse, it’s important to know about the laws and regulations surrounding fireworks in the Lone Star State. Texas has some of the most relaxed fireworks laws in the country, but that doesn’t mean you can set off just any type of firework whenever and wherever you please. Understanding Texas fireworks laws are crucial for a safe and enjoyable celebration.
Overview of Texas Firework Laws and Regulations
Texas firework laws are regulated by the Texas Department of Insurance, with specific rules and regulations that must be followed. The use of fireworks is regulated by local ordinances, so it’s important to check with your city or county for any additional regulations.
Fireworks can be sold in Texas from June 24th to July 4th and from December 20th to January 1st. However, it’s important to note that not all types of fireworks are legal in the state. The use of fireworks is also prohibited in certain parts of the state, including areas with high fire risks, such as drought-stricken areas.
Types of Fireworks That are Legal in Texas
In Texas, the types of fireworks that are legal to use include sparklers, fountains, cones, mines, and rockets. These types of fireworks are classified as “consumer fireworks” and can be purchased by anyone over the age of 16. However, it’s important to note that the size and weight of consumer fireworks are also regulated in Texas.
Consumer fireworks must not contain more than 50 milligrams of explosive material for most items, and no more than 130 milligrams for certain types of rockets. Additionally, the total weight of explosive material in a single firework device must not exceed 500 grams.
Types of Fireworks That are Illegal in Texas
There are several types of fireworks that are illegal in Texas, including firecrackers, skyrockets with sticks, missile-type rockets, bottle rockets, roman candles, and aerial fireworks. While these types of fireworks can be purchased in other states, they are not legal to use in Texas.
It’s also important to note that modifying legal fireworks to create illegal fireworks is prohibited in Texas. This includes adding explosive materials or other materials to a legal firework device.
Where You Can Legally Set Off Fireworks in Texas
In general, fireworks can be legally set off on private property or on public property with the permission of the property owner. However, it’s important to take safety precautions when setting off fireworks, including having a clear and open area, not setting off fireworks near buildings, and having a water source nearby in case of emergency.
Safety Tips for Fireworks in Texas
Fireworks can be dangerous if not used properly, and it’s important to follow safety guidelines to prevent accidents and injuries. Here are some safety tips to keep in mind when setting off fireworks in Texas:
- Always read and follow the instructions on the fireworks packaging
- Keep a water source nearby, such as a bucket of water or a hose
- Only use fireworks in a clear and open area, away from buildings and other structures
- Do not hold fireworks in your hand while lighting them
- Keep children and pets away from fireworks
- Dispose of used fireworks in a metal container with water
Penalties for Violating Texas Firework Laws
Violating Texas firework laws can result in fines and penalties. For example, setting off illegal fireworks can result in a fine of up to $2,000. Additionally, causing a fire or injury with fireworks can result in criminal charges and fines, as well as possible jail time.
