Fire prevention

Reduce your risk from wildfire by following FireSmart principles around your home and property.

When spending time outdoors: Use caution, follow safe burning practices, and fully extinguish your campfire before you leave.

Municipal wildfire reporting

Sharing timely information about active wildfires with Albertans is an important part of the Alberta government's approach to wildfire safety. That’s why we’ve enabled municipalities to report wildfires occurring within their borders to have them included on the Alberta Wildfire Status Dashboard and Alberta Wildfire Status app. The blue flame icon indicates a municipal fire. Read the map legend to understand the different flame icons.

Alberta Wildfire is also introducing response type reporting to explain how a wildfire is being managed. Wildfires within Alberta Wildfire’s jurisdiction will be assigned one of three response types:

  • Full response: Immediate and aggressive suppression action is taken.
  • Modified response: Some suppression action is used to contain a wildfire within a pre-determined boundary.
  • Monitored response: The wildfire is observed and assessed.

Click on one of the flame icons on the wildfire map to find the response type information.
