In consultation with Deer Lake Fire Rescue it has been decided to lift the outdoor fire ban as of
1:00pm on Tuesday, May 9th, 2023.
Backyard and recreational campfires are permitted provided they are conducted in a responsible manner.
Residents are reminded that during Forest Fire Season (May 1 to September 30) a permit from the province is required to burn grass or brush. Throughout forest fire season the province will monitor the forest fire index to determine if future fire bans are necessary.
