The short reprieve is over. We have moved back to EXTREME in our area. There may be some relief at the end of the week, but the winds have dried us out and the temperatures are reaching 30 C.
All HIGH HAZARD Activities must cease until the Fire Danger Class drops again to HIGH.
The Wildfire Act and Wildfire Regulation define the legal responsibilities and obligations to which everyone in British Columbia is subject. When the BC Wildfire Service places bans or restrictions in an area, the Wildfire Act and Regulation make them enforceable.
