Test fires this morning were successful and firefighters are working on ignitions on piles in the Bootsole Project area today.
Smoke is expected to be visible from U.S. Highway 395 between Susanville and Herlong Junction, including the communities of Janesville, Milford and the surrounding area. But it is not expected to have significant long-term impacts to nearby communities.
Short duration, minor smoke impacts are expected along Janesville Grade and neighboring forest roads. Visibility on roads in the project area may be reduced, especially early in the morning and late evening as smoke settles.
