Montana DNRC plans a prescribed burn for Nevada Creek Dam to be conducted either this Wednesday, April the 24th, or Thursday the 25th, if conditions allow. The burn will be applied to the downstream slope of the dam and lower areas adjacent to the outlet works.
This Rx burn is being completed to assist the DNRC State Water Projects Bureau and the Nevada Creek Water User’s Association. The intent is to remove decadent fuels and conifers from the area. The burn will be completed by DNRC and Helmville VFD resources as a training exercise.
