The Smooth Rock Falls Volunteer Fire Department is advising residents that there is a fire ban effective immediately until further notice.
This means no open fires are permitted within town-limits until further notice. All burning permits have been suspended and the SRF Fire Department is not selling burning permits at this time. This means:
Any person setting an open-air fire will be responsible and liable for costs and possible fine. It’s hot out, there is a lack of precipitation, and extreme dry conditions. Please cooperate and stay safe.
Residents can learn about the rules under a Restricted Fire Zone at ontario.ca/page/outdoor-fire-restrictions.
If you have any questions, please contact 705-338-2717
Sincerely,
Fire Chief, Michel Pelletier
Cc: Deputy Fire Chief, Yvan Marchand
