Forsythe II Prescribed Burn
Publication Type: Announcement - 04/15/2024 - 09:45
Firefighters have conducted a test fire and determined that conditions are clear to allow ignitions to continue as planned today, Monday April 15, for the Forsythe II Prescribed burn area. Smoke may be visible in the area as well as along the Front Range in areas proximate to Gross Reservoir.
Fire managers work closely with experts to minimize the impacts of smoke. Air quality is carefully monitored before and during a prescribed fire and all prescribed burns comply with state air quality regulations to minimize impacts to communities. To learn more about the potential health impacts of smoke visit www.colorado.gov/pacific/cdphe/wood-smoke-and-health.
Additional email notifications will be sent out periodically during ignition periods. To receive updates, make sure to join our email list and select "Forest Health & Fire: North of Hwy 72 (Coal Creek Canyon) to Hwy 119 Boulder Canyon (Nederland and Magnolia areas)". Additional information, including maps and project details for the Forsythe II prescribed burn plan, can be found on InciWeb.
