Fire Ban in Saddle Hills County - May 8, 2025

Due to the lack of precipitation, and dry and windy conditions, Saddle Hills County has upgraded the Fire Restriction to a FIRE BAN. This Fire Ban applies to all areas outside of the Forest Protection Area, including private land, crown land, and recreational areas.

A Fire Ban is also in place for the Grande Prairie Forest Protection Area.

Prohibited:

  • All outdoor wood fires, including designated firepits, backyard firepits, burning barrels, and any wood campfires on public or private land.
  • BBQ charcoal briquettes.
  • Fireworks and exploding targets.
  • Burning of brush piles, windrows or other debris.

Allowed (with caution):

  • Propane/natural gas-powered appliances.
  • Open flame oil devices (e.g. turkey deep fryers, tiki torches).
  • Indoor wood fires contained within a device with a chimney and spark arrestor.
  • Off-Highway Vehicles.

Please note, all appliances must be CSA approved and used per manufacturer’s standards.

This Fire Ban will remain in effect until conditions improve.

Never leave a campfire unattended. Soak it, stir it and soak it again until cool to the touch to ensure it is extinguished.

If you see a wildfire, report it immediately by calling 9-1-1 or 310-FIRE.
