Recovery of Firefighting Costs:
In accordance with the County’s Fire Protection Services Bylaw, any costs incurred by Smoky Lake County Fire Departments in responding to extinguish fires may be charged to the landowner or permit holder.

Smoky Lake County and the Town of Smoky Lake urge everyone to use extreme caution when working or driving in grassy areas, be mindful of hot exhaust, and keep vehicles clean and free of debris, as smouldering debris can fall off and start fires.

Be fire smart: remain cautious when burning or having a fire. Ensure the fire is completely extinguished. Soak it, stir it, soak it again. Repeat as necessary. Ashes should be cool to the touch.

Smoky Lake County at 780-656-3730.
