October Yard Waste Fire Permit Interactive Venting Index Map

For those of you wishing to use your October Yard Waste Fire Permit, the Interactive Venting Index Map is now easily available on the TIVFD website. 

Go to www.thetisislandfire.ca and click on the link below the Hazard Board graphic. 

We are in the green zone on the map: Southern Vancouver Island.  If it says NO, open burning cannot be initiated today in this zone.  If it says YES, then open burning can be initiated today. The

Venting Index must be followed even in the no-permit-required months on Thetis Island from November 1st

thru to April 1st.  If you haven’t requested your open burning yard waste permit for October, go to

www.thetisislandfire.ca and click on the on-line Fire Permit link on the left of the page. Permits are generally

granted within 24 hours but can be delayed, so plan ahead.
