Fire Risk Update – Level 3 (High)
29 September 2025 Update – Fire Risk Level 3 Remains: We are watching conditions closely and continue to hope for rain. Unfortunately, the forecast shows no significant precipitation in the near future. Several factors prevent us from easing burn restrictions right now. The ongoing Level 3 drought has reduced access to our usual water sources. Extremely dry vegetation, including corn and bean fields, increases the risk of fire spreading quickly. These conditions make fire response more challenging. For everyone’s safety, we must continue to use caution.
29 August 2025 - Fire Risk Level 3 – High Risk: Campfires are allowed only with a valid, activated burn permit and must follow all permit conditions. Campfires can be no larger than 0.6 m (2 ft) and must be contained within a non-combustible ring at least 15 cm (6 in) high, kept 6 m (20 ft) away from buildings, fences, wooded areas, property lines, or hydro/telephone lines. Only seasoned firewood may be used, and fires must be fully extinguished with water before leaving. Burn barrels, brush piles, agricultural fires, yard waste, and fireworks are not permitted. The fire department continues to monitor conditions. Check for updates at ec.burnpermits.com.
A shovel went into the ground at the Port of Johnstown (PoJ), in the Township of Edwardsburgh Cardinal (TWPEC), marking the start of a transformative project by V6 Agronomy to build a new fertilizer terminal that will improve access to phosphate across Canada, and strengthen both local and national agri-food supply chains.
The Port of Johnstown has announced a new partnership with V6 Agronomy to support local farmers and expand services at the port. This collaboration will improve access to crop inputs and help strengthen the agricultural sector across the region.
