The extremely dry conditions are leading to a number of area communities to ban open burning.

Bans are in effect in several communities including North Bay, Callander, East Ferris, Bonfield, Nipissing First Nation and West Nipissing.

Sundridge and Strong have now implemented complete bans.

Powassan has a partial ban.  They’re allowing small campfires.
