Burn Ban Issues for Northern Bossier Parish
August 24, 2012 2:26 PM 
A burn ban is now in effect for portions of northern Bossier Parish — specifically, Fire Districts 3, 5, and 7 as well as the Town of Plain Dealing. The area in question straddles Highway 160 — all the way north to the Arkansas line — east to the Bossier/Webster Parish line — and west to the Red River. Public Safety Director Sammy Halphen says that area is extremely dry — although other parts of the parish have seen sufficient rainfall. Halphen says the bun ban will be lifted as soon as conditions improve.
