Committee News

 
The Oregon Department of Forestry is conducting a five-year review of its program. The process began in May with a field tour allowing Review Committee members to meet each other and gain a better appreciation of prescribed burning from an operator perspective.

In addition, the Committee will meet several times over the course of 2012 and 2013 to discuss and make recommendations to several identified issues that will update the smoke management rule and directive. Meeting dates, times and locations will be posted in advance on this website. The public is welcome to attend.
