🔥 BURN BAN REMINDER 🔥

UNION COUNTY IS STILL UNDER A BURN BAN.

🚫 NO BURNING IS ALLOWED.

Even with the rain we received over the weekend, it is still too dangerous to burn. Conditions remain dry enough for a fire to quickly get out of control.

DO NOT BURN UNTIL THE BURN BAN HAS BEEN LIFTED.

Stay safe, Union County! ❤️ 👨‍🚒🚒🧯

Many viewers are asking how they can help? They are asking about delivering water, gatorades, food, etc.

El Dorado Fire Department Chief Chad Mosby, says, "We don't need more food or water at this second. However, if people want to donate water or sports drinks like gatorades, then they can deliver that to the Central Fire Station downtown and we will distribute it as needed. Then after the fire, anything that is left over, we will donate to the volunteer fire departments around the county."

The area around the fire is still closed to anyone other than essential and emergency personnel.
