PRINCE GEORGE — The Prince George Fire Centre has expanded a prohibition on Category 2 open fires.

Earlier this month, a ban on Category 2 open burning was issued for the Stuart Nechako and Prince George forest districts.

However, effective tomorrow, it will be banned throughout the entire Prince George Fire Centre.

Category 2 open fires are the open burning of any material up to two metres high and three metres wide, and grass and stubbles fires up to 2000 square kilometres.
