Nighttime controlled burn near Amana
Members of the Amana Fire Department held a controlled burn north of Amana the night of Tuesday, March 28. Fire Chief Chris Herr said the department used the event as a training opportunity, which included developing skills for grass fire control and back-burning. The burn was done at the request of the landowner and involved about 20 acres of CRP land. (Jeff Sigmund/Special to The Pioneer-Republican)
