The San Luis Obispo county air pollution control district announced that they are preparing to perform a series of prescribed burns at Camp Roberts.
The proposed dates for the burn are May 25th through June 1, 2024, with a majority of burn acreage proposed for May 28th.
Prescribed burning is an important tool used to minimize fire hazards and minimize the likelihood of uncontrolled future wildfires.
Smoke will be present on the day of the prescribed burns. Additional information will be provided as the burn window gets closer, and the burn is dependent on weather and air quality conditions that are favorable for smoke dispersal.
If conditions are not as desired, the burn may be rescheduled.
