A ban on barbeques, campfires, sky lanterns and fireworks on moorlands around Bolton is up for review.
Breaching the ban is a criminal offence and could result in a fine of up to £1,000.
When Bolton Council consulted on the restrictions three years ago over 90 per cent of people who responded were in favour.
The aim is to cut the risk of wildfires on moorland around Bolton including Winter Hill, but the restrictions must be renewed every few years, so the council is consulting on whether to extend them for a further three years.
Adjoining moorland covered by Chorley Council and Blackburn with Darwen Council is covered by similar bans and the councils are also surveying people on extending them.
The ban applies to public open space, meaning any land or premises within the restricted area where there is public access or right of way.
But it does not prevent residents living in the restricted area from, for example, enjoying barbeques in their own gardens.
Wildfires are a regular occurrence on the hills around Bolton and most are caused by human activity.
Among the biggest risks are disposable BBQs, campfires, fireworks, sky lanterns, cigarettes and broken glass.
Fires can destroy precious habitats, harm plants and animals, cause air and water pollution, and release greenhouse gases.
The cost of controlling them, damage to farmland, lost income from tourism and the impact on local businesses can lead to significant economic consequences.
Over 200 firefighters, 100 soldiers, 57 fire engines and a helicopter battled major wildfires that engulfed hillsides all around Greater Manchester in the hot, dry summer of 2018.
Cllr Rabiya Jiva, Bolton Council Executive Member for Stronger Communities, said:
“When we first suggested protecting our moorlands by restricting fire risks it received overwhelming public support.
“Now that it is time to ask the public again, I encourage everyone who has an interest in our fantastic upland areas to have their say.”
The consultation runs from Monday, March 9 to Friday, April 20 and is available at www.bolton.gov.uk/consultations
