Fire ban changed for Crown land
Starting today, a fire ban affecting Crown lands in Saskatchewan will be modified slightly.
The ban will stay in effect for all Crown land, provincial parks/recreation areas and the Northern Saskatchewan Administrative District.
The ban will apply to areas north of the provincial forest boundary and will extend 4.5 km from the boundary.
“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,” said the Saskatchewan Public Safety Association in a news release on July 17.
