Can I burn today in Casey?

A permit is required

Casey’s by-law does not set out what each fire danger rating allows, so this page cannot tell you whether today is a burning day. Today’s rating is beside this, and the fire hall below has the answer.

Forest fire dangerModerate
Air quality (AQHI)
No station near here
Observed
rating measured at the centre of Timiskaming District, which covers a wide area

A rating is not permission. Casey requires a permit, and a fire ban can be declared at any time. Township of Casey (joint municipal office with Township of Harley) decides — not this page.
