The City of Enderby is implementing a campfire ban effective at noon on Thursday, August 28, 2025. This ban is in addition to the prohibition on open burning that took effect on June 13, 2025, and now includes:
- campfires;
- open burning (all);
- fireworks;
- sky lanterns;
- burn barrels or burn cages;
- binary exploding targets;
- tiki and similar kinds of torches;
- chimineas; and
- air curtain burners.
- Wood fired hot tubs, wood fired pizza ovens and other wood fired devices unless vented through a structure that has a flue and is incorporated in a building
This prohibition does not include outdoor stoves provided they are a CSA-rated or ULC-rated device used outdoors for cooking, heat or ambiance that burns charcoal briquettes, liquid fuel or gaseous fuel, and has a flame height that is less than 15 cm tall.
The ban applies to the City of Enderby and the Shuswap River Fire Protection District. The ban is consistent with the Kamloops Fire Centre’s prohibition.
This prohibition is in effect until the Kamloops Fire Centre rescinds its ban, unless notice is provided otherwise.
