The local area has received sufficient moisture to temporarily remove the fire ban. However, we still recommend that all individuals wanting to burn utilize smart burning practices. These include ensuring you are not alone, have a water supply nearby, ensuring the fire is out before retiring for the night, and lastly if you are planning a controlled burn, please call the controlled burn line at 1-866-404-4911.
A fire ban is in effect for the RM of Hoodoo effective April 8, 2024 at 8am. This includes the RM of Fish Creek, Town of Cudworth, Town of Wakaw, Wakaw Lake Regional Park and Resort Village of Wakaw Lake.
