*OUTDATED*The New Jersey Forest Fire Service is carrying out controlled burns in several counties today. Although none are being conducted in Camden County it is possible that you may detect the scent or sight of smoke within the vicinity. Remember to call 911 if you have any concerns about smoke or fire.Today, March 22, the New Jersey Forest Fire Service will be conducting prescribed burning operations in the following areas. 🔥 Atlantic County – Galloway Twp. – Private Property 🔥 Atlantic County – Mullica Twp. – Wharton State Forest 🔥 Burlington County – Pemberton Twp. – Brendan T Byrne State Forest🔥 Burlington County – Tabernacle Twp. – Private Property 🔥 Burlington County – Washington Twp. – Wharton State Forest 🔥 Burlington County – Woodland Twp. – Greenwood Forest Wildlife Management Area 🔥 Burlington County – Woodland Twp. – Brendan T. Byrne State Forest 🔥 Cumberland County - Maurice River Twp. – Belleplain State Forest🔥 Ocean County – Jackson Twp. – Private Property 🔥 Ocean County – Lacey Twp. – Greenwood Forest Wildlife Management Area 🔥 Ocean County – Lacey Twp. – Double Trouble State Park 🔥 Ocean County – Manchester Twp. – Greenwood Forest Wildlife Management Area 🔥 Ocean County – Manchester Twp. – Private Property 🔥 Somerset County – Bernards Twp. – Private Property 🔥 Warren County – Hardwick Twp. – Private Property This schedule is weather dependent and subject to change. If in doubt about the source of smoke or fire, call 9-1-1 or 877-WARN-DEP (877-927-6337). 🔗 Active / upcoming prescribed burn map: www.njparksandforests.org/fire/infotools/rxb.html ABOUT PRESCRIBED BURNING: There are multiple benefits to prescribed burning, which is a safe, effective and efficient means of managing the buildup of forest fuels that may contribute to the start and spread of a wildfire. By actively eliminating sources of fuel that exacerbate forest fire risks through a controlled and prescribed burning program, the Forest Fire Service reduces risk to New Jersey residents, visitors and the environment. Prescribed burns improve habitat for plants and animals, reduce the presence of damaging insects and ticks, and recycle nutrients into the soil. In addition, prescribed burning is an important part of the state’s carbon defense strategy. Allowing experts to choose the intensity, timing and interval of fire across the landscape may help prevent a larger uncontrolled wildfire, which would contribute to significant carbon loss. Typically, most prescribed burns take place between February and early April.🔗 Learn more about prescribed burning in New Jersey: nj.gov/dep/newsrel/2023/23_0012.htm #NJFFS #NJForestFireService ...
