Cypress County lifts fire restriction

Jan 17, 2019 | 9:40 AM

DUNMORE, AB — Cypress County has lifted its fire restriction for the region which has been in place since Friday.

In a release sent Thursday morning, the Cypress County Fire Department cited the snow and colder weather in the region as a reason for lifting the restrictions.

The change was made at 9 a.m. The county will once again begin issuing fire permits.

The lifting of the order does not impact any other fire bans in nearby city and towns, and doesn’t affect fire bans in provincial parks.
