Fire Ban Lifted in Maple Ridge

Maple Ridge Fire Chief Dave Samson has lifted the Category 1 (campfires) and Category 2 open fire ban, following cooler weather and recent rain. Category 3 fires remain prohibited in most of the Coastal Fire Centre, including Maple Ridge, until October 31 (or until rescinded). To see all details of what is and is not prohibited under this ban please review the news release from our Fire Department.

The Fire department serves the community by protecting life, property, and the environment. This is achieved through an all-hazards response model to emergency events, risk-based fire inspections, public education, strategic planning, and year-round training. Maple Ridge Fire Rescue utilizes a composite model of career and paid-on-call firefighters to protect the community. Emergency Management focuses on reducing the impacts of disasters on our community with planning, response models, and recovery strategies.
