Burn ban flag flies at Depot
County residents may have noticed a bright red flag flying at the Albany Visitor Center.
The new banner signals whether the Shackelford County Commissioners have enacted the county-wide burn ban. It will be flown continuously until the ban is deactivated.
New AgriLife extension agent Michaela Bradford is in charge of making sure the flag is flown at the correct times.
The Texas A&M Forest Service and Texas A&M AgriLife Extension are in partnership for the effort, Bradford said.
