The Lower Platte South Natural Resources District (LPSNRD) has officially implemented a complete fire ban on all Wildlife Management Areas. This decision comes in response to severe drought conditions that have significantly increased the risk of wildfires. Effective immediately, all outdoor burning activities, including but not limited to campfires, bonfires, and cooking fires, are prohibited. We kindly ask residents and visitors to adhere to the following guidelines:

  • No open flames: Please refrain from any activities that may spark a fire, including campfires and burning debris.
  • Stay informed: Keep up with local weather updates and stay in touch with the LPSNRD for any changes to this ban.
  • Report suspicious activity: If you see any signs of potential fire hazards or illegal burning, please report them to local authorities immediately.

We understand that many residents enjoy outdoor activities that may involve fire, and we appreciate your understanding and cooperation during this critical time. The safety of our community and environment is our top priority.
