Description

Fort A.P. Hill begins spring controlled burns

Fort A.P. Hill Forestry began its spring controlled burns March 18 with burns on the southern part of the post. The controlled burns reduce fuel and control vegetation in training areas and ranges; they also help to reduce the risk of wildfires on the installation and from fires spreading off post.

Today’s crews used the Terra Torch, a gel-fuel ignition system that shoots a thickened mixture of gasoline, diesel and water into an area to start a fire.

Fort A.P. Hill will continue controlled burns for the next several weeks as weather permits.
