CASS COUNTY, N.D. (KFGO) – As construction continues within the stormwater diversion channel portion of the FM Area Diversion project, ASN Constructors is planning a controlled burn along local rivers. The controlled burn is necessary to manage vegetation to support future construction.
The controlled burn is scheduled to begin Thursday morning and continue throughout the day and into Friday as needed. The controlled burn will follow all environmental and safety precautions, aiming to minimize environmental impacts and ensure public safety.
The burn will begin on the northern end of the channel, starting along the Rush River, west of 168th Avenue SE, and continuing south to the Lower Rush River on either side of 64th Avenue N. It will continue along the Maple River south of 33rd Street SE and finish along the Sheyenne River south of 46th Street SE/Cass County Road 14 and west of 81st Street S.
ASN constructors and their subcontractor have coordinated this controlled burn with local fire departments to ensure safe burning conditions.
The public may notice visible smoke in the area during the controlled burn.
