Coastal Fire Centre Burn Ban Lifted Sept 27 2023

The (Category 1) campfire prohibition and the Category 2 and Category 3 open fire prohibition will be lifted in the Coastal Fire Centre starting at 12:00 PM PST, on Wednesday, September 27, 2023. This means that all open burning will once again be permitted within the Coastal Fire Centre’s jurisdiction.

Please note that the District of Kent burning bylaw still has a prohibition on category 2 and 3 fires until after September 30, 2023. All open fires within the District require an annual burning permit and the ventilation index should be “good” prior to burning.
