Updates – Burning Regulations & Carbon Monoxide Alarm Law

6 May 2015 | 0 Comments

From Haliburton Fire and Rescue

Haliburton – local officials are issuing a reminder that the fire season has officially begun and the risk of grass, brush and forest fires is increasing on the top ground cover layer until it greens up.
“The official fire season in this area of the province starts April 1st, and although the forest fire danger rating is currently set at moderate, warmer weather is quickly approaching and conditions are changing in the forested areas around Haliburton. “The dead grass and brush along with the top layer of the forest ground cover is especially susceptible to fires at this time of year. We are urging caution with annual spring clean-up efforts around people’s homes and cottages.
The Haliburton Fire Department cautions about burning materials in large piles. Even the slightest breeze can carry a burning ember a considerable distance which can threaten nearby homes, cottages and forested areas.  Forest Fire Danger toll free ‘HOT-LINE’ is 1-877-847-1577, and now operational. The public is asked to check the hot-line before lighting any fire to ensure that a fire ban has not been declared. A fire ban can be implemented any time environmental conditions create an increased threat of fire.
If there is a FIRE – CALL 911
