Fire Permits are required March 1 to October 31 of each year.

2/28/2019

 
During the Fire Season (now starting March 1st), any person lighting a fire for any purpose, other than for burning household garbage or campfires in approved containers/methods, must have a valid fire permit.  You may be liable for fire suppression costs and/or penalties as provided by law for any damage or suppression that may occur while burning without a valid permit.
​
Fire permits may be obtained free of charge by:
  1. Using the new Ponoka County Mobile app (free app) available at Google Play and the App Store.
  2. Attending or phoning the Ponoka County Administration Office at 4205 – Highway 2A in Ponoka, 403-783-3333, during regular business hours (Mon – Fri, 8:30am – 4:30pm).
  3. Phoning the Regional Fire Chief, Dennis Jones, at 403-913-5105.
  4. Phoning the East District Fire Chief, Dale Morrow, at 403-913-4038.

Fire permits are not required November 1 to February 28 of the following year, but it is appreciated if you would still contact the office to notify of a controlled burn. This assists the applicable Fire Department should they receive an outside fire call. 

Thank you for helping keep our community safe.
