Dry conditions in the province are putting our forests at risk of wildfires.
There have been 33 wildfires recorded to date this year, burning approximately 32.2 hectares. During the same period last year there were only 2 fires recorded burning 5 hectares.
Forest Fire Season has started and permits to burn are now required. Anyone burning grass should be extra careful since grass fires can easily get out of control.
Operators of off-road vehicles should use a proper screening or baffling device to prevent sparks from escaping and always carry a fire extinguisher.
