Perth County collectively announced the lifting of the open air fire ban in the County as of midnight tonight.
The move was made as stated in the release due to recent rainfall.
They add that with the monitoring of rainfall and vegetation conditions, Fire Chiefs are confident that residents can now safely burn.
They do say to continue to practice safe burning by doing such things as calling local departments to obtain a burn permit, closely supervise all outdoor fires, ensure they are at least 25 feet away from all structures and combustible materials and never burn plastics, household garbage, construction debris, treated lumber, tires and asphalt products.
