The U.S. Forest Service in Oconee County announced plans this morning for a prescribed burn today in Mountain Rest, at Russell Farms.
The prescribed burn is to cover 73 acres and, according to a USFS spokesman, begins late this morning.
It is still unclear at this time which direction the wind is most likely to blow the smoke.
