Johnny Appleseed Metro Park employees plan a “controlled burn” of a section of Bluffton's Motter Metro Park the later this month.

The date depends upon several conditions including wind, temperature, humidity and condition of the ground.

A park spokesperson told the Icon earlier this week that the burn was planned for Thursday morning, but the rains of yesterday may have changed that.

The area to be burned includes 8 to 10 acres on the west side of the parking area back to the fence row.
