FIRE BAN AND TRAVEL RESTRICTIONS IN CYPRESS HILLS PROVINCIAL PARK

Released on August 1, 1997

Environment and Resource Management Minister Lorne Scott today issued

a ban on open fires within specific campgrounds of the Centre and West

Blocks of Cypress Hills Provincial Park due to extreme fire hazard

conditions.



The ban also applies to wood fires in fire pits and barbecues within

the picnic sites and campgrounds as listed: Meadows, Sunset, Aspen

Grove and Horseshoe. Briquettes may, however, be used in facilities

approved by Environment and Resource Management in these campgrounds.

Outdoor enthusiasts must carry self-contained heating devices or

pressurized stoves for the duration of the ban.



As well, travel by vehicle off the Battle Creek Road in the West Block

and the Gap Road between the Centre and West Blocks is prohibited.



All the restrictions will remain in effect until further notice.



"I realize that these restrictions may cause inconvenience for some

campers this weekend, but open fires are simply too dangerous when

conditions are this extreme," Scott said.
