According to Alberta Fire Bans, both the town of Rocky Mountain House and the Clearwater County region are now under a fire advisory.
Under the advisory:
-New permits will be considered on a case-by-case basis, only for essential burning.
-Existing fire permits are valid but extension requests may not be granted. Permit holders must follow the safe burning conditions outlined on the fire permit.
-New fire permits will not be issued for non-essential heavy fuel burning such as machine-piled brush piles and windrows.
-New fire permits will be issued on a case-by-case basis, for essential burning only.
Prohibited:
-Any burning without a valid fire permit, other than a campfire is prohibited.
The advisory is a downgrade from the fire restrictions announced in April.
