County-wide burn ban lifted

Due to the cooler temperatures and moisture accompanying early fall weather and a reduction in the overall fire hazard, the Grant County Board of Comissioners and the County Fire Marshal announced Sept. 8, that the County Wide Burn Ban is being lifted, effective immediately.

Although the ban is lifted, please remember that the use of burn barrels is strictly prohibited. In addition, only natural vegetation may be burned (no household garbage).
