Jun 5, 2026 | 12:12 PM

Cypress County lifted its fire restriction on Tuesday, June 4, with the current weather patterns in the region.

They had put a restriction in place a month earlier, on May 4; however, precipitation has provided soil moisture in southeast Alberta over the past week.

At this time, the County will not be issuing burn permits, and recreational fires continue to be allowed.

Additional information is available through the County’s policy.
