forest fire or controlled burn?

so i was working in AC last week on the new harrahs tower up on floor 42 and i believe it was thursday or friday, i saw alot of smoke coming from the northwest way out there. i did a quick google search and im 99% sure it was a controlled burn around rt 539/ rt 72 in the stafford forest area. anyone know anything about this fire? im just curious as to how far i could see from where i was at lol.

I'm pretty sure it was a controlled burn........ when i was driving back there it didn't look like forest fire work

I read last week that they're doing controlled burns in the area of the bombing range. They want to reduce the risk of another wildfire like the one accidentily started last year by military aircraft.
