HRM has a new online tool to provide residents and visitors with up-to-date information on whether burning is allowed or not.
Before starting an open fire, the city asks that you check Before You Burn, first to make sure you comply with regulations.
What can you check?
- No more guesswork – this tool is specific to your civic address.
- Quick visual access to the burn status for the municipality (open, restricted, ban, etc.).
- More detail including the Halifax-specific fire risk index.
- Detailed descriptions of all burning types (campfires, brush burning, etc.).
The online tool compares the burning restrictions between the province and the municipality.
