Prescribed Burn In Jones Swamp Preserve
January 21, 2014
Weather conditions have forced the postponement of a prescribed burn in the Jones Swamp Preserve.
The Escambia County Natural Resources Conservation Division is still preparing for a prescribed burn in the Jones Swamp Preserve, which could be conducted by a certified prescribed burn contractor with assistance from the Florida Forest Service. The prescribed burn could take place between Wednesday, January 22, and Friday, January 24, to restore the natural ecology of the Jones Swamp Preserve and reduce the danger of wildfires.
The Escambia County Natural Resources Conservation Division is keeping a close eye on weather conditions in an effort to complete this prescribed burn this week, but there is a concern that weather conditions will not be favorable.

Unless they want to wipe out part of West Pensacola, they better wait setting the swamp on fire until the brisk winds subside.
