Fire Permit Season
|
April 1st to October 31st of every year is wildfire season in the municipality. If you are planning to light an outdoor fire of any kind, excluding a fire pit, burning barrel, smudge, incinerator or any fire less than 1m in diameter, you must fill out and sign a permit to burn.
Permits are available at the RM Office, from designated Fire Chiefs, or click the link to the right. All permits are void when a Fire Ban is in effect. If you are within 3 miles (4.5 km) of a Provincial Forest, you must apply for a burn notification number with Saskatchewan Public Safety Agency. The number to call is 1-306-426-2600. Exemptions from burn notification numbers are the same as the RM exemptions. You can access their website by clicking their Logo below.
