Miller County Under Burn Ban

Miller County is under a burn ban through sunrise Sunday, July 17. The county Emergency Management Agency issued the order this afternoon,  with the cooperation of the Brumley Fire District, Eldon Fire Department, Iberia Fire District, Lake Ozark Fire District, Moreau Fire District, Rocky Mount Fire District, St Elizabeth Fire District and the Tuscumbia Fire District. The no-burn order was imposed because of the expected continued high temperatures, and  sometimes gusty winds making areas of the county vulnerable to fire.
