Leduc County Fire Restriction in Effect

April 19 2023

Please be advised that Leduc County is now under a fire restriction. There is an increased risk of wildfire due to dry conditions.

 

What does a fire restriction involve?

When a fire restriction is issued, no open fires are allowed, and all open fires must be extinguished immediately. All fire permits are suspended, as per the Forest and Prairie Protection Act, and no new fire permits will be issued for the duration of this restriction.

 

Citizens can use cooking and heating appliances – such as barbecues, firepits and patio heaters – fueled by liquid fuel like propane or natural gas. Citizens can also use approved burn barrels and fire pits but should use extreme caution.

 

Fire Services will continue to monitor conditions, and will update the public at leduc-county.com and albertafirebans.ca when the restriction is lifted or downgraded, or a ban is issued.
