CAL FIRE in cooperation with the City of Susanville Fire Department, will be conducting prescribed pile burning operations in the area of Riverside Drive and the Susan River, in Susanville, California.
Pile burning operations are scheduled for week of January 13th, 2025, and is expected to continue until the pile burning project is completed. Fire Suppression resources will be actively working in that area, and smoke will be visible, however, there is no need to report this fire.
This area is frequently plagued with nuisance fires during peak fire season causing dangerous conditions to the city’s residents. The purpose of the project is to reduce the fuels available for fire starts prior to the onset of prolonged extreme heat and severe conditions that the area experiences during the summer months, the result will lessen the impacts from future unwanted fires to the nearby homes and infrastructure.
