BLM Plans Bathtub Springs Prescribed Burn
The Wyoming Bureau of Land Management High Plains District plans to treat approximately 400 acres of big sagebrush-grasslands and aspen woodlands with prescribed fire about 70 miles west-northwest of Casper and 10 miles north of Arminto on the Clear Creek grazing allotment.
The goals of the Bathtub Springs prescribed fire are to improve big game habitat, improve forest health in aspen woodlands and associated big sagebrush-grassland communities, and improve forage base for livestock.
Weather permitting, the treatment is scheduled for this Wednesday May 6 through Thursday May 7, 2009.
