2022 NJ wildfire season: prescribed burns (March 1st to 4th)

The New Jersey Forest Fire Service (NJFFS) continues with their late winter/early spring prescribed burning season as weather conditions allow. As always, conducting scheduled prescribed burns is weather dependent and the schedule may change.

The NJFFS scheduled the following prescribed burns on March 1, March 2, and March 4. In putting together this list, I eliminated duplicates, and errors are my responsibility. All of these prescribed burns are in central and southern New Jersey.
