California State Parks is working alongside CAL FIRE and the Air Pollution Control District to organize prescribed burning at Montaña de Oro State Park between April 9 and May 2.
The specific burn days are yet to be decided and will depend on weather conditions and permits. Burning will take place between 7 a.m. and 5 p.m.
The burning is part of an effort to reduce fire hazards and assist native plant communities by controlling invasive species and weeds.
