Kincardine is becoming the third municipality in the region to support the Green Ribbon Champion program, after Saugeen Shores and Huron Kinloss.
Kincardine Parks and Recreation Director Karen Kieffer says the program comes from the Lake Huron Centre for Coastal Conservation.
She says its a stewardship and education program that empowers shoreline residents, providing them with advice, resources and support to protect, conserve and restore Lake Huron’s beach-dune ecosystems and water quality.
Kieffer goes on to say the centre performs a one-on-one beach assessment of a residents property and then provides them with a restoration plan, educational signage and a beach care toolkit.
The burn ban for Huron Kinloss has been lifted has been lifted.
This means open air, beach and recreational fires will now be permitted.
Annual permits and special exemption have also been reinstated.
Fire Chief Chris Cleave is requesting anyone who intends to build a fire to keep it safe.
