Ponoka County Regional Fire Services
Fire Ban Lifted (November 10, 2025) (Incl. Town of Rimbey, Town of Ponoka & Summer Village of Parkland Beach) With the moisture received over the weekend, Ponoka County Regional Fire Services has lifted the fire ban within their response area (Ponoka County, Town of Rimbey, Town of Ponoka and Summer Village of Parkland Beach) effective today. Although fire permits are not required for County residents, from November 1 to February 28, those burning are responsible for control of the fire at all times including when the fire is thought to be extinguished. The lack of moisture has made the ground conditions extremely dry and a fire located in the wrong area can burn for day, weeks or months underground. The conditions imposed during fire season are still in effect including burning of prohibited debris. We thank you for your cooperation in helping to keep our municipality safe! For up-to-date fire status please visit www.ponokacounty.com, Ponoka County App Notifications or www.albertafirebans.ca or contact the County office at 403-783-3333.
