[LookOutSugarLake] BURNING RE: PINE BEETLE INFECTED TREES

[handr at telus.net]

> Anybody has information on this? sent by an email correspondent today:

> I attended a BX Community Association meeting last night with one  
> of the topics being presented on the pine beetle and the dead  
> trees.   While at the present NORD is silent on this matter, there  
> are concerns being raised that there's risk that there might not be  
> much or be very little restriction as to when these infested trees  
> could be burned.
>
> Don't know what the situation is in other areas but wouldn't hurt  
> to check now.  We were told that the burning season may be extended  
> to six weeks this year to accommodate one wanting to clean up their  
> infested trees.  That has yet to be confirmed as well.
>
> I understood that NORD has yet to developed a policy on this but  
> given the choice, I'd much rather look out a few dead trees and a  
> burnt out forest!
>
> More checking on this matter is needed.
