Fire Restriction Smoky Lake County
Smoky Lake County has implemented a Fire Restriction effective 9:00 a.m. April 26, 2022. Smoky Lake County will not be issuing any new burn permits. With the dry conditions, cured dry grass becoming more prominent and lack of moisture the fire hazard is high at this time.
It is recommended that all burn permits that were issued be checked, to ensure that they are out and not cause a spring grass fire. Recovery of Firefighting Costs: In accordance with Bylaw: Fire Protection Services, as amended from time to time or any costs incurred by the County Fire departments will be charged to the landowner/permit holder, if the Fire Department or County is called upon to respond to extinguish a fire.
Fire pits, warming fires, barbeques and burn barrels will be allowed but must be supervised to ensure that they do not cause a secondary fire.
For further information please contact the Smoky Lake County, (780) 656-3730.
