Burn bans have been lifted in Grant and Ouachita counties following rainfall over the weekend, but several counties across the Deltaplex remain under restrictions.
Jefferson, Arkansas, Cleveland, Lincoln, Dallas, Drew and Desha counties are still under burn bans until further notice, according to local officials.
Authorities in Jefferson County said citations have been issued to individuals found violating the burn ban, emphasizing that enforcement is ongoing as dry conditions continue to pose a fire risk.
Officials are reminding residents in counties with bans to follow all burn ban restrictions and avoid outdoor burning until conditions improve and bans are officially lifted.
Deltaplex News will continue to monitor the situation and provide updates as additional burn bans are rescinded.
