Ban on Open-Air Fires Lifted: Municipalities Urge Caution

Recent weather conditions have allowed for the lifting of the ban on open-air fires. Campfires, outdoor fireplaces, and fireworks are now permitted. However, several municipalities are urging residents to remain cautious.

In Mansfield-et-Pontefract, for example, municipal officials emphasized that conditions throughout the summer have required constant vigilance. They also advised that anyone uncertain about current rules should contact the Mansfield Fire Department or consult the SOPFEU (Société de protection des forêts contre le feu) website to ensure they are not in violation of fire regulations.
