Ideal conditions for a prescribed burn were present on Monday, May 17th as approximately 100-acres of grassland in Upper Bidwell Park off Wildwood Avenue in Chico, California was burned as part of the City of Chico's recently adopted Vegetation Fuels Management Plan. Guillermo Mash covered the #goodfire burn for Imagining Community, snapping the first image of smoke in the air at 9:10 a.m. concluding our coverage at 2:30 p.m. as it was declared, "all tied in." Our segment starts with Mike Watner, Fire Captain with the Chico Fire Department.
