With spring clean-up underway after a long winter, the provincial government reminds residents that burning grass is a dangerous practice.
The Forest Fire season is in effect as of today and that means a permit is required to burn vegetation, wood, or paper. Burn permits are free and easy to get but are not required to light campfires on soil, gravel or sand, but that also depends on the daily forest fire hazard risk in your area. With spring clean-up underway after a long winter, the provincial government reminds residents that burning grass is a dangerous practice. As well, take simple actions to prevent wildfires, like stacking wood piles away from houses, watering and trimming grass, and removing weeds.
