Ministry of Natural Resources fire crews have made excellant progress
on Dryden Fire #79, 20-kilometres southwest of Vermilion Bay.
Rainfall over the weekend helped the 13-crews assigned to the out-of-control blaze.
Information Officer Travis Moffatt says despite the progress, an
emergency order has been put in place.
n028 runs: 17 sec. out…supression operations.
A ban on open burning also remains in effect across Northwestern
Ontario.
