– The BC Wildfire Service will be assisting the Range Branch in clearing and burning woody debris along the western fence line adjacent to Pinnacles Provincial Park. This project will help to reduce wildfire risk in the area.
Burning will begin as early as Wednesday, June 9, 2021 and continue until June 22, 2021. The decision on when to burn will depend on weather, site and venting conditions. Such burns are only conducted when conditions are suitable, and they must comply with the Open Burning and
Smoke Control Regulations to limit the impact on air quality in nearby communities.
BC Wildfire Service personnel will be on site to control and monitor the burn piles.
Smoke from the piles may be visible from Quesnel and the surrounding areas.
