PRESCRIBED BURN AT ANGEL ISLAND STATE PARK TO RESUME AS EARLY AS WEDNESDAY

UPDATE: From Nixle (9/23/2026, 2:35PM):
Smoke from the prescribed burn at Angel Island State Park has drifted towards the East Bay and is currently visible in parts of Richmond. There is no emergency related to this operation.
California State Parks has informed that ignitions at Angel Island State Parks have been completed as of 2:15 PM. Residents can expect residual smoke to linger, but should be mostly tapering off.

****

EARLIER:

Prescribed burn operations on Angel Island State Park will resume as early as today Wednesday, September 23, until Thursday, September 24. This is related to the same prescribed burn operation that was paused earlier in the month.

Smoke might be visible to residents in Richmond. If noticed, please refrain from calling 9-1-1 to report smoke on the island, as it will impact emergency dispatch operations.

Note: All burning is dependent upon wildfire activity, resource availability, weather conditions, predicted smoke movement, and fuel moisture. Agencies will closely monitor conditions throughout the burn; if conditions are not conducive, the burn will be rescheduled.
