The Province of Nova Scotia is restricting travel and activities in the woods because continued hot, dry conditions have greatly increased the risk of wildfires.

The restrictions, effective as of 4 p.m. today, August 5, include:
- hiking, camping, fishing and the use of vehicles in the woods are not permitted
- trail systems through woods are off limits
- camping is allowed only in campgrounds

These and other measures are in place on provincial Crown and private land until October 15 or until conditions allow them to be lifted. The fine for violating the restrictions is $25,000.

Forestry, mining and any commercial activity on provincial Crown lands are also restricted. People who conduct this kind of activity can apply for a permit at their local Department of Natural Resources office.

While the restrictions are in place, people can still access beaches and parks, but not the trail systems. Private landowners are free to use their own properties but cannot host others to use wooded areas of their properties.

🚨 Mock Inshore Water Rescue Recap 🚨

Last night, Abercrombie Fire Department, along with the Coast Guard and surrounding agencies, conducted a mock inshore water rescue in Pictou Harbour. The training was a success, giving crews the opportunity to practice water rescue techniques in a realistic setting.

Alma Fire Department tested their drone, which provided an aerial view of the scene, helping to locate individuals and vessels faster and providing greater situational awareness to command staff on shore.

The New Glasgow Fire Department provided their boat for our on-water training.

Pictou Fire Department was positioned on the Pictou side of the harbour, they acted as a lookout team. As part of the scenario, they were tasked with setting up a landing zone for LifeFlight and were responsible for receiving the patient from New Glasgow’s rescue boat.

Thanks to all the participating departments and those who supported the training!
