Boise Idaho - If you see smoke on Wednesday (Mar. 20) coming from the area of the Roswell Marsh Wildlife Habitat Area near the community of Roswell, please know it is a prescribed burn and there is no danger.

Idaho Department of Lands (IDL) firefighters will be assisting the Idaho Fish and Game with the burn to control noxious weeds. IDL provided the same treatment to the marsh 12 years ago.

The prescribed burn will only take place on this date if weather conditions permit. It should take just one day to complete the process.
For information about the Roswell Marsh Wildlife Habitat Area, please contact Fish and Game’s Fort Boise WMA office at (208) 722-5888.
