During the month of April, the VTARNG Environmental office will be conducting controlled burns in select areas of Ethan Allen Firing Range as the weather permits. Expect to see large plumes of smoke rising from the property. This annual event is weather dependent which prevents forecasting a detailed timeline difficult.
Spring will also cause the surrounding towns to see and increase in construction vehicle traffic as soon as the roads are open to heavy vehicles.
LEGEND:
Small Arms: Handheld weapons (M-4 and M-16 rifles, pistols)
