Burn ban remains in effect

Posted:

The burn ban in Pennington county will remain in effect for the time being.
 
Citing continued dry conditions, Pennington county fire administrator Denny Gorton says state, federal and local agencies elected to keep the ban in place.

Gorton says this week alone, there have been half a dozen significantly sized fires in South Dakota, many of which have burned hundreds of acres.

Some exceptions to the ban will be allowed, including the buffalo roundup's Dutch oven cook off.
