Park to conduct prescribed fires MEDORA - The National Park Service (NPS) plans to conduct pre- scribed fires in the North and South units of Theodore Roosevelt Na- tional Park between May 8 and May 20. The decision to implement fire projects requires a favorable forecast for specific weather conditions, the NPS said. Several fire units covering nearly 2,200 acres in the South Unit may be burned this spring. A 400 acre burn unit is located in the southeastern corner of the park near the Painted Canyon Overlook. Burn units in the North Unit cover 1,800 acres in the northwest corner and between the Longhorn Flats pullout and the Little Missouri River. The primary objective of the burns is to restore fire to areas of the park that have historically been sub- jected to periodic wildfire. Clay buttes, moist drainages, and other areas of bare ground characteristic of the Badlands topography will not burn. These natural firebreaks re- duce the total burned area and help firefighters contain fire to desired areas, avoiding impacts to fire sensi- tive vegetation and culturally impor- tant sites, the NPS said. The resulting mosaic of burned and un- burned areas mimics naturally oc- curring fires and is the desired outcome, the NPS said. "Careful prescribed fire applica- tion combined with regulation of bison, elk, and feral horse popula- tions is an important vegetation and habitat management tool. Natural fire episodes are essential for native species growth and ecosystem bal- ance in the Little Missouri Bad, lands," said Acting Superintendent Wendy Ross. "Visitors can explore the site of the 2014 Beef Corral Wash prescribed fire, a 2,500 acre area east of Wilad Canyon and north of Jones Creek, to see a landscape maintained by fire." In past years, the park canceled several planned prescribed fires be- cause of extremely dry conditions. If sufficient moisture and fuel condi= tions return this spring to allow safe burns, park managers will notify local fire and law enforcement agen- cies and the public. Other hind man- agement agencies will assist National Park Service staff with burn operations. Sections of the park's roads may be closed temporarily for visitor safety. Information will be available on the park's website at www.nps.gov and on social media via Twitter @TRooseveltNPS and on Facebook at www.facebook.com/Theodor- eRooseveltNationalPark.

North Dakota Highway Patrol troopers are working overtime to enhance safety in con- struction zones. Road coh~tfiJ~i'0n involves re- duced speed zones, lanes for traffic. and lane width, requiring heightened awareness from motorists. The public can expect enhanced enforcement during peak traffic and when workers are present. All traffic laws will be strictly enforced, the Highway Patrol says. Citations will be issued for following too closely. speeding, passing in a no passing zone. and improper lane changes, as well as other violations. Last year, troopers issued 896 ci- tations during construction zone ox~ertittie, iiacltai:lin'g 53,2' ~peed-re- lated CitatiOris and 130 ~seat belt and child restraint violations. Motorists should slow down. in- crease following distance, and be aware of construction workers and other vehicles while traveling in con- struction zones.
