Incident Description
Prescribed burns are important part of forest restoration projects planned in accordance with the Forest Service’s 10-year Wildfire Crisis Strategy. Prescribed burns and mechanical thinning work together to remove fuels such as woody debris and logging scraps from the forest floor during times of opportune weather.

Fire managers make every effort to effectively plan and execute burn plans at times when weather allows for smoke impacts to be minimized and transport up and over communities. If you have a complaint about the smoke impacts you are experiencing from any of the prescribed burn projects and would like to talk to a member of Fire Management Leadership, please call our hotline at 928-226-4608 and leave your message with your name and number and someone will return your call as soon as they are able.
