Agriculture Prescribed Burn on Josephine Roche property today, April 2
Located at the intersection of Arapahoe Rd. and 119th St.
The Fire Management Program will be conducting prescribed fire operations today, April 2, on the Josephine Roche property located at the intersection of Arapahoe Rd. and 119th St. Operations will begin by 10 a.m. with smoke and flames visible for a few hours. The project is being implemented for water conveyance purposes.
Burn projects depend on ideal weather conditions, including relative humidity, fuel moisture, and wind. Projects will only proceed when conditions are suitable. Fire managers will monitor all projects until they are called out.
Smoke from prescribed fires may affect health. The Colorado Department of Public Health & Environment Wood Smoke and Health webpage and the Boulder County Public Health Wildfire Air Quality & Health webpage provide tips on how to protect health from smoke.
A full list of burn areas and timing updates are posted on boco.org/PrescribedBurns.
