BC Wildfire Service lifts area restriction order near Fort St. James

Another area restriction order has been rescinded within the Prince George Fire Centre.

Activity on the 2,300-hectare Sakeniche wildfire has reduced significantly in recent days, allowing officials to fully lift the order and let residents go back home.

The fire is now 100% contained, located 20 kilometres north of Middle River and 120 kilometres northwest of Fort St. James.

The public however is being asked to use caution when driving back in.

Firefighters can still order anyone to leave immediately if they feel conditions are unsafe.
