I was on a proposed prescribed burn site visit a few weeks ago. The site was a managed wetland (about 20 acres), where water flows can be controlled. The combustability of peat soils was discussed. Prior to the burn, the site will have to be re-flooded to wet the soil while leaving the dead above-ground biomass dry enough to burn. I was wondering whether peat soils were part of the situation in the Boundary Waters of Minnesota.
