Level One fire ban

South Frontenac Township has moved to a Level One Fire Ban effective Tuesday, June 13, 2023.

A Level One fire ban restricts open air burning for the purposes of burning grass, brush, or other combustible materials, but permits campfires and cooking fires as defined in the By-law 2012-68.

With the welcome rain over the past few days and progress in containing wildfires in eastern Ontario and Quebec, it was determined the total fire ban could be lifted, but residents are still being asked to be cautious when having camp and cook fires.

South Frontenac Fire and Rescue personnel will continue to review conditions and notify the public of any status changes.

If you have any questions or concerns, please call 613-376-3027 ext. 2234, or email fireadmin@southfrontenac.net.
