Inspection of Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry (MNRF) Approved Prescribed Burn Plan for Slash Pile Burning in Nagagami and Magpie Forests.

As part of MNRF ongoing efforts to regenerate and protect Ontario’s forests, some recently harvested areas have been selected to be burned under the guidelines of the MNRF’s Prescribed Burn Manual. The prescribed burn will reduce the area covered in slash piles while increasing the area available for regeneration and reducing the fire hazard. The burn is scheduled for ignition between September 26, 2020 and December 24, 2020. See the map below for the areas in this schedule.
