Prescribed burns west and south of Williams Lake will be conducted between now and November 11th and smoke from these fires may be visible from nearby communities.
Fire Information Natasha Broznitsky explains where these burns will be taking place.
“These controlled burns are planned for three sites, one near Doc English lake in the cotton road area, one at Bald Mountain west of the Farwell Canyon Road at the six kilometer market and one at Crows Bar on the eastern banks of the Fraser River across from Churn Creek”.
When weather conditions permit, these controlled burns will be managed by the Ministry’s Ecosystem Restoration Program with assistance of the BC Wildfire Service.
