Prescribed burns planned along Montana 200
The Kootenai National Forest is planning to conduct fall prescribed fire projects along Montana 200 when weather, fuel conditions and air quality become favorable.
According to the Forest Service, all projects follow a prescribed fire burn plan and are located and designed to be controlled to reduce the potential for adverse effects. Prescribed fire is an essential tool for promoting resilient fire-adapted landscapes and mitigating wildfire risk across forests.
During prescribed fire operations, smoke may be visible from various places across the forest depending on the location of the burn units and weather conditions.
