Fall and Winter Prescribed Burns Planned

Over the fall and winter months, the Arizona Department of Forestry and Fire Management (DFFM) plans to take advantage of seasonally cooler temperatures to accomplish multiple prescribed fire projects throughout Arizona.

State prescribed fire managers say so far projects are planned for Coconino, Apache, Navajo, Maricopa, and Yavapai Counties.

Project work remains dependent on resource availability and on favorable weather conditions which provide for safe burning efforts and successful project implementation and completion.
