A ban on small-scale open burning in the Prince George Fire Centre's jurisdiction will be lifted effected midday Friday, the B.C. Wildfire Service said.
However, caution is still urged.
"Although fire danger ratings have dropped in the region due to recent rainfall and cooler temperatures, people are strongly encouraged to exercise caution with any outdoor burning or campfire use," officials said.
A ban on so-called category two open burning had been in place for the Prince George and Stuart Nechako forest districts since May 8 and was expanded to the entire jurisdiction on May 23.
Campfires were still allowed over that time.
Anyone planning a category three open burn - defined as a pile larger than two metres high by three metres wide or a grass burn larger than 0.2 hectares - must obtain a burn registration number ahead of time by calling 1-888-797-1717.
