FIRE ADVISORY IS LIFTED - as of May 30, 2018
Fire permits will again be issued as usual for any burning in the Forest Protection Area of Alberta. Contact your local Agriculture and Forestry office to schedule a site visit to obtain a free permit. Fire permits ensure safe burning practices and allow staff to know where burning is approved so firefighters and aircraft are free to fight wildfires.
