Nebraska Game And Parks says, with the extension of the Governor’s statewide burn ban, guests at Game and Parks’ properties are reminded that a temporary ban on campfires remains at all Nebraska state park areas and wildlife management areas.
The new statewide burn ban now continues through April 10th.
Game and Parks also has been temporarily halting prescribed burns.
At state park areas and wildlife management areas, camp stoves using liquid or gas fuel are permitted as they reduce the likelihood of ash or hot charcoal being discarded before they are extinguished.
These types of stoves also do not produce blowing embers, further reducing wildfire potential.
