Confused I was driving down the road and saw a construction sign saying PRESCRIPTION BURN AHEAD.....?

Question

Any one know what that means?

Answer 1

I would guess that they were planning on doing a "controlled burn" of grass and/or brush along the road side.

Answer 2

sounds like a control burn from the forestry

Answer 3

It means for some reason, they are burning a certain area of land. Could be the DNR or some other government agency doing it.

Answer 4

They are likely burning last years grass.

It means to slow down a bit and expect smoke that might reduce visibility.
