The Fire Protection, Civil Security and First Responders Department of La Pêche issues a ban on lighting outdoor fires of all types on its territory

La Pêche, June 8, 2023 – The Fire Protection, Civil Security and First Responders Department asks for the cooperation of the entire population as a preventive measure and asks to avoid making outdoor fires of all types due to the increased activity in Quebec.

The current situation with active forest fires in Quebec monopolizes the services of SOPFEU and the impact could be major in the event that a major fire breaks out on the territory of the Municipality of La Pêche. Resources to extinguish a fire are currently limited to local means.
