Lt Keith Draper Beaver County Correctional Facility of Prescribed Burn Planned Near Beaver Beaver, Utah - The Fishlake National Forest, Beaver Ranger District is preparing for a prescribed burn designated in an area located near Beaver. Beaver Ranger District and Centra! Utah Interagency Fire Crews will be implementing the project beginning May 27, 2009 and continuing through the fall of 2009. They are planning to burn Pinyon and Juniper slash piles which was selectively cut and left to cure the previous season. The primary treatment objective is to reduce the haz-ardous fuels in this area as well as increase tne herbaceous forage production. The Sheep Rock Chaining Maintenance Project is approximately 800 acres located 5 miles north of the community of Beaver on the west side of the Beaver Ranger District. Smoke will be visible from the 1-15 cor- ridor. Generally, there are only two "windows of opportunity" per year, spring and fall, when the fuels, vegetation, and weather conditions are acceptable and safe for use of prescribed fire. Although, every effort is made to conduct prescribed fires so smoke is minimized and dispersed into the atmosphere, some communities and residents may be affected for short periods of time. The prescribed fire will only be implemented if temperature, humidity, wind speed, fuel moisture, Department of Air Quality Regulations and other factors can be safely met.
