Southwest District BLM Prescribed Fire
Publication Type: Announcement 09/25/2023
Firefighters on the West Dolores Rim Prescribed Burn have good conditions to resume ignition operations today, Monday, September 25, 2023. They will use drip torches to ignite the perimeter and an unmanned aircraft system (UAS) drone with PSD (plastic sphere dispenser) for aerial ignition in the interior area of the burn unit. Smoke may be visible east of Egnar, CO.
The BLM obtained smoke permits from the Colorado State Air Pollution Control Division, which identify atmospheric conditions under which the burns can be implemented. Prescribed fire smoke may affect your health. For more information, visit https://www.colorado.gov/pacific/cdphe/wood-smoke-and-health.
