If you see smoke in the north county today and tomorrow, it may be coming from a training exercise on Camp Roberts. It’s a class to teach how to back fire.
Clint Bullard of Cal Fire says back firing reduces fuel. Bullard says Cal Fire has been making a lot of preparations for this training exercise today and tomorrow at Camp Roberts. Bullard has been telling people about the training exercise for a few weeks.
Next week, Cal Fire will be doing a controlled burn near Garden Farms, at the south end of Atascadero.
