When air quality and weather conditions permit, the Los Padres National Forest will conduct prescribed burns in the Mountain Communities beginning as early as January 19 to dispose of hazardous fuel.

If you have questions, contact Mt. Pinos Fire Management Officer John Abell at 661.245.3731.

This is part of the January 16, 2015 online edition of The Mountain Enterprise.
