Kansas Flint Hills Smoke Management
Welcome to the Kansas Flint Hills Smoke Management Website. This site provides a single location for land managers conducting prescribed burns in the Flint Hills to obtain information and access tools to assist them in making burn decisions.
This website supports the Flint Hills Smoke Management Plan, which was developed in an attempt to balance the need for prescribed fire in the Flint Hills with the need for clean air in downwind communities.
The website contains links to training, regulations, policies, publications, a modeling tool and other links to guide people looking for information on smoke management.
