Mendocino NF Fall 2024/Spring 2025 Prescribed Fire Projects
Publication Type: News - 04/15/2025 - 10:12

This week firefighters will be operating the air curtain burner at the Chico Seed Orchard. A curtain burner can consume woody debris, brush and small logs in a self-contained incinerator that has reduced emissions and smoke. Firefighters are planning to complete up to 10 acres of fuels reduction using the curtain burner, pending favorable weather conditions. All prescribed fire operations are carefully monitored, and firefighters will conduct patrols following burning operations.
