BREAKING: Fire Ban In Effect Across Province
The Department of Natural Resources has issued a province-wide ban on open fires. The ban applies to all outdoor fires. Supervisor of Wildfire Management, Jim Rudderham, says it's a necessary step to take.
He says people can continue to use their barbecues and camp stoves, but should use extra caution. The ban will be in place indefinitely until significant rain falls in the region. For more information, go to http://www.gov.ns.ca/natr/forestprotection/wildfire/burning-ban.asp .
