JENSEN, Uintah County — Fire crews at Dinosaur National Monument will conduct a controlled burn on the Colorado side of the monument Thursday, weather permitting.
The burn will remove piles of woody debris and other vegetation that were removed around the monument’s headquarters in order to reduce hazardous fuels.
Smoke will be visible from Dinosaur, Colorado, and other developed areas near monument headquarters. There should be very little impact to U.S. 40 or nearby residences.
