There will be a controlled burn at the
St. George Island state park on Wednesday.
The burn will likely start after 10 in
the morning.
It will cover about 120 acres on the
bay side of the park between the youth camp and the East Slough bot
ramp.
The
burn will reduce some of the underbrush and other flammable material
in the park.
Prescribed
burning is done around Florida throughout the year to reduce the
chances of wildfires.
Prescribed
burns mimics natural fire cycles to restore healthy forests and
reduce undergrowth that accumulates over time.
