Prescribed Burning at Eufaula NWR

We are planning to prescribe burn (with support from the Alabama Forestry Commission) in the next four weeks.  The areas scheduled for burning are grasslands and pine restoration sites in our Houston and Davis-Clark units.  Please remember to park such that you are not blocking gates, roads, fire lines, or field access.  We ask that you be patient if we need to temporarily close roads or management units with little notice.  If you would like more information, feel free to call our office (334/687-4065).
