South Dakota Wildland Fire in conjunction with our
interagency partners will be conducting a prescribed burn in the Hermosa area
today (weather permitting). The objective of the burn is to target grassy fuels
and encourage the growth of native grasses, providing a more favorable habitat
for wildlife. Additionally, the burn aims to reduce the thatch layer, thereby
lowering the risk of potential wildfires. Smoke may be visible in the area from
11:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. today. Residual smoke may linger in the area for an
extended period. Local dispatch and local volunteer fire departments have been
notified.
