All Bossier Parish fire districts have reinstated the parish-wide burn ban due to ongoing
dry conditions and increased fire risk across the parish. Although some areas received
recent rainfall, fire officials determined conditions remain favorable for wildfire activity
and that additional precautions are needed to protect lives, property, and natural
resources.
Under the burn ban, local fire officials prohibit all outdoor burning unless specifically
authorized. Residents are urged to comply with all burn restrictions and remain vigilant
during this period of elevated fire danger. Dry vegetation, low humidity, and changing
weather conditions can allow fires to spread rapidly and unpredictably.
The fire districts will continue to monitor conditions throughout Bossier Parish and will
reassess the burn ban as weather patterns and ground conditions improve. Officials
appreciate the public’s cooperation and commitment to helping prevent wildfires and
keeping communities safe.
Residents with questions about the burn ban should contact their local fire district for
additional information.
