While the weather doesn’t exactly lend itself to a campfire right now, it is officially fire season in Alberta.
If you live or work in the Municipal District of Bonnyville No. 87 and wish to conduct any burning, you must first obtain a permit from a Fire Guardian or should you live in the Alberta Forest Protection Area, from your Sustainable Resource Development Office. There is no charge for the permit.
