An article appearing in the News Bulletin’s Saturday, April 13, edition, Backyard burn permits needed, omitted information.
Burning permits may only be issued for an open burning fire on a lot that is .4 hectare in size or greater, or for lots located on Protection Island.
The News Bulletin regrets the omission and any confusion it caused.
