Prescribed Burn at Landfill
Beaverhead County is planning a prescribed burn of the wood debris pile located within the Beaverhead County Landfill. Beaverhead County has obtained a Landfill burn permit, #LF-306 from the Montana Department of Environmental Quality in order to conduct this burn.
One of the conditions of the permit is to notify all adjacent landowners. Another condition is to have adequate fire resources on the scene during the burn. The Beaverhead County Fire District #2 will provide the fire resources.
The burn is planned for the week of February 24 to February 28, 2025, weather permitting. If for some reason the burn cannot take place during this time, it will take place as soon as possible after that date.
If you have any questions or concerns, please call 406-683-3780 or Nick Hoem at 406-925-1047.
