Burn Ban Lifted Effective Friday, October 11th, 2019

AMITE—Effective today (Friday, Oct. 11), Tangipahoa Parish President Robby Miller announces the parish’s burn ban has been lifted.

“Due to overnight rain totals and a forecast track that calls for additional showers in our area throughout this afternoon, our local fire departments concur that conditions no longer call for a burn ban across Tangipahoa Parish,” Miller said.

Miller established a burn ban on Sept. 30, citing nearly two months of dry and abnormally hot weather conditions across our area.
