Tribes are welcome to attend Washington State Department of Natural Resources (DNR) smoke coordination calls, which are held on Mondays and Thursdays for as long as prescribed burns are taking place. Calls include a review of current and upcoming weather, ventilation, and air quality conditions and an opportunity to ask questions. Burners also can share their plans with the group – when they’re hoping to burn, the size and tonnage of the burn, fuel types, and the general location. The Smoke Team is available post-presentation to discuss specific projects and answer questions.
