Due to the extreme weather, including hot, dry and windy conditions, we are seeing a significant increase in fire activity within the burn area. Our fire crews are on scene working in these areas using both ground crews and support from the air.
The fire is under control and we want to remind the public to stay out of the burn area and give our crews room to work.
Town of Drayton Valley and Brazeau County if the fire is under control, can you please get the government of Alberta to update their wildfire map so we can get home insurance on new to us properties?
A Total Fire Ban remains in effect for the area of Brazeau County and the Town of Drayton Valley.
A total fire ban occurs when the fire hazard in the area is very high. NO OUTDOOR BURNING IS PERMITTED.
- Existing fire permits will be cancelled
- No new fire permits will be issued until Total Fire Ban is Lifted
- No wood campfires in approved fire pits
Allowed:
- Portable propane fire pits
- Gas or propane stoves and barbecues
