The RM of Mervin No. 499 is reminding residents that conditions can change quickly, and wildfires can start and spread faster than you think.

Were you approved for a burn permit?

If you received approval from September/October 2025 to April 30, 2026, please return to your burn site and physically check the area to ensure there are no remaining hot spots or hazards.

Stay Fire Smart:

• Dry grass, leaves, and wind can turn small sparks into major fires

• Wildfires can happen anytime, anywhere

Do your part:

• Be Aware – Know current fire danger and restrictions

• Be Prepared – Clean up dry debris around your property

• Use Equipment Safely – Follow instructions and keep equipment maintained

We all have a role to play — together, we can prevent wildfires.

Wildfires don’t wait. Neither should we.

Be prepared. Be responsible. Be fire smart.
