B.C. Wildfire Service crews are planning to burn piles of woody debris near Fox Mountain over the next four weeks, depending on site and weather conditions.
Smoke and flames may be visible from Williams Lake and surrounding communities.
The work will be part of an project to reduce wildfire risks in the area.
"By removing this material, less fuel will be available to burn in the event of a wildfire and any such fire will burn with less intensity," BCWFS said in a press release issued Monday.
Personnel will be on site with firefighting equipment to monitor and control these burns at all times and will proceed only if site, weather and venting conditions are suitable.
