Subject: Total Fire Ban to be lifted in Haliburton County
With sufficient rainfall in recent days, the total fire ban that was enacted in Haliburton County on June 1 will be lifted as of 12:01 a.m. on Wednesday, July 12. This is a joint decision of the County’s four chief fire officials.
The lifting of the ban means that seasonal burning regulations remain in effect, with no outdoor burning between 7 a.m. and 7 p.m., and that burning permits are re-activated. Visit the website of your local municipality for more details on burning regulations.
For more information on the lifting of the fire ban, contact your local fire chief.
