Updated! Fiddyment Annual Training Burn

Roseville – South Placer County residents can expect to see smoke Saturday June 29th, 2019. CAL FIRE/Placer County Fire rescheduled the annual Fiddyment Burn with area fire agencies and volunteer firefighters as a training exercise and fuel reduction project.

The prescribed burn will take place between 8 a.m. and 4 p.m. Saturday.

The terrain allows crews to employ direct and indirect methods of firefighting and fire control, and provides agencies an opportunity to train cooperatively in incident command and fire ground tactical operations while reducing fuel loading in a field with significant fire history.
