The Fire ban in Sask has been lifted by the Saskatchewan Public Safety Agency (SPSA).
The ban was officially lifted at noon on July 26, 2024.
The fire ban will be lifted on all Crown lands, provincial parks, provincial recreation sites located north of the provincial forest boundary and along with the Northern Saskatchewan Administration District. The public is reminded provincial parks, municipalities and R.M.s may still have their own local fire ban, restriction or advisory in place.
Municipalities and provincial parks should continue to monitor local conditions and implement fire bans or burning restrictions as required.
“After this weather system passes and hazards increase, the public is reminded to remain attentive to preventing new wildfires while enjoying our provincial forests,” said SPSA Vice-President of Operations Steve Roberts.
Anyone who spots a wildfire can call 1-800-667-9660 or dial 9-1-1.
