State Forestry Crews To Conduct Pile Burns Tuesday South Of Flagstaff

The state forestry department will conduct pile burns south of Flagstaff Tuesday. About 330-acres of piles will ignite about six miles southwest of Flagstaff in the east Kachina Village/Mill Park area. Recent moisture allows a window to burn debris piles from prior forest mitigation work. The piles are expected to put out minimal smoke to nearby communities and Interstate-17 and Interstate-40.
