WRIGHT- PATTERSON AIR FORCE BASE, Ohio --  

Controlled burns are scheduled to take place in several locations on Area A, on March 2, 2025.

Controlled burns are beneficial for new vegetation and help reduce the spread of invasive species.

The burns will occur between 10 a.m. and 5 p.m. that day.

While the burns are in progress, those near the base should not be alarmed and should expect to see large plumes of smoke throughout the day. The timing of the controlled burns will depend on the weather conditions and may be rescheduled if necessary.
