Forest Fire Regulations

Forest Fire Regulations

Residents are reminded of the forest fire regulations which can be found at www.faa.gov.nl.ca/forestry/forest_fires/reminder.html. The regulations highlight most of the important information pertaining to activity inside our town limits.
During fire season May 1 – September 30, a sign is located roadside in front of the Forestry building which is updated daily to inform the public of the fire season index. It is also available online at http://www.faa.gov.nl.ca/…/forest_fires/fire_hazard_map.html . The fire index will determine if any fires including ones in screened fire pits are permitted.
