The public should use caution around the area. Operations are expected to continue for the next three weeks.
Forestry mulching, or mowing, is a conservation management technique used to control overgrown vegetation. Mulching helps improve habitat and trail accessibility while also reducing risk of wildfires. In areas with dense and overgrown vegetation, mulching aids in reducing fuel loads for future burn operations. It is also used in areas close to neighborhoods and other human developments where prescribed fire may not be practical or safe.
