BOURNE, Mass – Members of the Massachusetts National Guard’s Natural Resources, and Integrated Training Area Management Program conducted a prescribed burn behind S Range on Camp Edwards, Massachusetts on April 16, 2024. Prescribed burns are done for a variety of reasons, including reducing the build-up of hazardous fuels to decrease the chances of wildfire, and improving the habitat for native woodland species including pine barrens and scrub oak barrens.
Led by Burn Boss Joel Carlson, Wildland Fire Program Coordinator, Massachusetts Army National Guard, this burn was conducted in coordination with Joint Base Cape Cod Fire Department, Massachusetts Department of Conservation and Recreation Forest Fire Control, and AmeriCorps Cape Cod.
