"Effective 12:00 pm, May 21, 2024: Sturgeon County has lifted its “Fire Restriction”. All previously issued fire permits that have not expired are re-instated. Residents wishing to obtain a new fire permit can do so by making application on-line at www.sturgeoncounty.ca, contacting Protective Services directly at 780-939-8400 or from their local Fire Guardian/Councillor.
Residents are asked to be patient when applying for fire permits (yard & garden debris), burn barrel permits, and low/high hazard firework permits as new permit applications will be processed in the order they are received. Our goal is to review and approve all permit applications within two (2) business days.
Sturgeon County Protective Services urges everyone to use caution, follow burn permit conditions, and be careful when performing hot work activities producing spark or flame. When operating OHV’s keep them clean and free of debris as hot exhaust and smoldering debris can start grass fires.
Any questions can be directed to Sturgeon County Protective Services at 780-939-8400."
