Recent rains have allowed the Manitoba Wildfire Service to remove the last of the fire and travel restrictions that had been in place in Area 4.
This is the large area east of Lake Winnipeg to the Ontario border.
Manitobans are reminded there are still some areas where the risk of wildfire may still exist even after the rain, therefore caution is required.
Provincial burning permits will once again be available through the local or regional Manitoba Conservation and Climate offices. The issue of any burning permit remains at the discretion of the issuing officer and may require a site examination prior to issue.
All provincial park trails are open and campfires are permitted in approved pits only.
