This order will be reviewed prior to its termination to determine the need to extend the ban. Further information will be provided prior to that date.

Effective immediately the Governor has issued an Executive Order that bans the issuance of Open Burn Permits for 14 days. The Executive Order prohibits any fire chief or person designated by the fire chief from granting an open burn permit for any purpose.

[Fort Calhoun Fire / Rescue @fcfdfire]

Any existing burn permit that has not been completed is null and void and open burning is not permitted for 14 consecutive days beginning now.

[Fort Calhoun Fire / Rescue @fcfdfire]

Thank you to all who assisted with the incident.
