Members of the Tahoe Fire and Fuels Team, which includes local, state and federal agencies, will resume prescribed fire operations this week in multiple locations around the Lake Tahoe Basin. 

Weather and conditions permitting, Tahoe Douglas Fire Protection District, California State Parks, California Tahoe Conservancy and the U.S. Forest Service will conduct prescribed fire operations in Sugar Pine Point and Burton Creek state parks on the West Shore, near Carnelian Bay and Kings Beach on the North Shore, near Logan Shoals on the East Shore and on Kingsbury Grade near Edgewood Creek and urban lots off Ski Run Boulevard on the South Shore. 

Smoke may be present. 

Whenever weather and conditions allow, prescribed fire operations are conducted by the TFFT to reduce overgrown vegetation, which decreases the severity of future wildland fires and protects communities.
