PETERSON SFB — The Cheyenne Mountain Space Force Station (CMSFS) Fire Department will begin live burn training on Saturday, February 15, and continue through Wednesday, February 19.
The training will begin at 9:00 a.m. and continue through 6:00 p.m. on the CMSFS installation.
According to Peterson SFB, the "purpose of these burns is to reduce overall vegetative fuel load within native areas and improve overall forest health and resiliency."
