2024 Wildfire Season

The 2024 wildfire season in Alberta is kicking off earlier than expected – 10 days ahead of schedule! It’s time to get proactive and prepared! Check your burn piles.

If you’re having a planned burn, be mindful of weather conditions and don’t forget to let us know. You can complete a burn notification here: Https://www.mdsmokyriver.com/departments/emergency-services/fire-permits/ , or by calling the Fire Chief @ 780-837-0911.

All burning activities in Alberta’s Forest Protection Area (FPA), excluding campfires, require a fire permit

Remember to stay safe

Over 60% of wildfires in Alberta in 2023 were human-caused, and they could’ve been prevented!

Respectfully
Marcel Maure
Regional Fire Chief
