Update #34: Fire and ATV ban contraventions result in fines, 11:00AM May 17

Since the fire ban began, Sturgeon County has responded to 13 reports of fire and OHV/ATV ban contraventions. A violation of the fire and OHV/ATV bans can result in a fine starting at $500 all the way up to the cost of an emergency response. These types of calls take firefighters and peace officers away from urgent emergency response. Members of the public are reminded again that Sturgeon County's State of Local Emergency remains in effect and that the total fire and OHV/ATV ban is still in place. If you witness a ban violation, please call the complaint line at 780-939-8418 as soon as possible.

The Redwater Recreation Area remains closed by Alberta Parks as we continue to be in an active fire situation. Please note that RR 205 between Victoria Trail and TWP RD 574 will be closed until further notice. This does not impact access to any residences in the area.

The Redwater Recreation Area Fire is being held at 3,230 hectares.

Alberta Wildfire conducted an infrared scan of the fire last night to detect hot spots. Firefighters will target these hot spots today and work to extinguish them. Significant time and effort will be required to complete this work. Helicopter support is available if required.

For your safety and the safety of firefighters, please respect road closures and avoid burned areas.
