KED CORP NEWS CORNER

BURN BAN

Katheryn Benton, Emergency Manager encouraged the Commission to enact a burn ban for Brule County as the vegetation is dry and with the high winds, low humidity and lack of excessive moisture it would be best right now to not burn. Commissioner Carson moved and Commissioner Dozark seconded to enact a burn ban for Brule County effective immediately. All members voted aye. Motion carried.
