Weather and conditions permitting, the Tahoe Douglas Fire Protection District and the U.S. Forest Service may continue prescribed fire operations beginning Nov. 6.

Operation locations include areas off Logan Creek Drive and on Kingsbury Grade, and on urban lots near Heavenly Mountain Resort and off North Upper Truckee Road on the South Shore. Operations will continue as conditions allow.

Smoke from prescribed fire operations is normal and may continue for several days after an ignition depending on the project size and environmental conditions.

Before prescribed fire operations are conducted, agencies post road signs around areas affected by prescribed fire, send email notifications and update the local fire information line at 530.543.2816.
