Michelle Pinon News Advertiser Only two days after Lamont County imposed a fire ban in the municipality a fire broke started on a rural property southeast of Lamont. Lamont County Regional Fire Chief Shayne Milliken said, “Crews were called to the area of Township Road 542 & Range Rd 192 at approximately 12:30 on July 1 for a large outside fire. The fire started in an open field as a result of cutting hay and quickly spread into the brush on the property. Approximately 30 firefighters from four stations were called to put out the fire. Crews had the fire held within about one and a half hours and brought under control shortly after. No structures were lost.”
Milliken wanted to remind residents that Lamont County’s fire ban is a total fire ban. “This means that only barbeques and propane fire pits are allowed. All other burning activities, including the discharge of fireworks, is prohibited. The basic fines for non-compliance start at $50, however the owner is also responsible for the cost of the fire department responding to their property and any hours associated with putting illegal fires out. Not to mention should the illegal fire start a larger fire, the property is responsible for the full cost associated with combating that fire.” All active fire permits were suspended at the time the fire ban came into effect on June 29. The fire ban will remain in place until further notice.
