The risk of wildfires has lowered enough in some counties for restrictions on travel and activities in the woods to be lifted today, August 29. The burn ban remains in place for the entire province until October 15 or until conditions improve further.

Effective 4 p.m. today, the woods restrictions are lifted in the following counties:

- Cape Breton
- Richmond
- Victoria
- Inverness
- Guysborough
- Antigonish
- Halifax.

“Our data shows conditions are heading in the right direction in certain parts of the Province, enough for the professionals to recommend lifting the woods restrictions in those areas,” said Premier Tim Houston. “While our crews are still battling the fire in Long Lake, Nova Scotians have taken the precautions needed to keep wildfire activity low in other parts of the Province. The conditions are ready for them to get back to safely enjoying the woods again.”

The remaining counties in Nova Scotia are still under the woods restrictions as conditions continue to be extremely dry and hazardous:

- Pictou
- Colchester
- Cumberland
- Hants
- Lunenburg
- Kings
- Annapolis
- Queens
- Shelburne
- Digby
- Yarmouth.

Restrictions in these 11 counties will remain in place until October 15 – regarded as the end of wildfire season – or until conditions allow them to be lifted. The fine for violating the restrictions is $25,000.
