Fire Ban Revised for Saskatchewan
Part of the provincial fire ban issued by the Saskatchewan Public Safety Agency (SPSA) on July 11 is being modified effective 11 a.m. on Wednesday, July 17.
The provincial fire ban will remain in effect for all Crown lands, provincial parks, provincial recreation sites, and the Northern Saskatchewan Administration District located north of the provincial forest boundary, including the 4.5 km burn notification area.
In general, south of Prince Albert, it will be up to individual municipalities, First Nation communities, rural municipalities, and parks to determine if a fire ban is required.
“Each provincial park in the southern part of the province will continue to work with the SPSA to determine risk and implement campfire restrictions if required,” Minister of Parks, Culture and Sport Laura Ross said. “We encourage all residents and visitors to remain diligent in preventing human-caused fires in all areas of Saskatchewan.”
