Update: HAL018 Wildfire August 10, 2025

Marmora and Lake staff remain in regular contact with MNR officials, who continue to provide updates on the HAL018 wildfire.

 As of the time of this post, the MNR has confirmed that there are three (3) MNR crews fighting the fire on the ground who are also being supported through the use of their water bombers to help manage the fire.  While we the municipality has offered assistance and support, we have been advised that is not necessary at this point in time, as the fire does not appear to have grown in size. 

 It remains vital that the public allow professional fire and emergency services personnel to do their jobs. Please keep in mind our previous update to give aircraft room to operate safely and not operate drones in any area, that may present a hazard to aircraft and aircraft safety.  We need to keep them safe so that they can keep us safe!

 We will continue to monitor the situation and share updates as we receive them. The Municipality of Marmora and Lake extends its gratitude for the incredible job that the MNR crews are doing to protect our community.

Thank you.
