I was out there this morning looking to see where the controlled burns were and on a side road near Bear Swamp Hill we drove past a really nicely burned area which seemed much more than a controlled burn. I had it on my dash cam but it was erased on the drive home. I need to buy a bigger card.
This was mentioned in the Pinelands Commision meeting. Apparently a few boards gave way in the dam. Should be fixed quickly though because it is a water source for the firefighters.
