The Nebraska Game and Parks Commission will conduct prescribed burns this fall at the following locations in southeast Nebraska: South Fork Wildlife Management Area (WMA), Richardson County; Branched Oak State Recreation Area/WMA, Lancaster County; Meridian WMA, Thayer County; Rose Creek WMA, Jefferson County; and Little Blue East, Thayer County.

The burns will reduce invasive species competing with native plants, which will help improve the quality of habitat available to a variety of wildlife species.
