Can I burn today in Harley?

A permit is required

Harley’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)

A rating is not permission. Harley requires a permit, and a fire ban can be declared at any time. Township of Harley Fire Department decides — not this page.
