  • PLOTS & WMA Program (ND G&F)
  • Oakville Prairie (UND)
  • Vector Control (Insect control using Fire)

These programs are very important projects that involve bettering the Public's access to land, while at the same time improving wildlife and native plant habitat.  We take our Prescribed Fire Program very seriously and believe in what we are doing.  We have a few items that come first before any project will be considered

  • Safety (Can it be done without any undue risk)
  • Reason (Why does this project need to be done)
  • Public (Again safety and notification factors)
  • Risk (Fire if used properly is a safe effective tool, but with that comes risk that have to be met)
