HERSHEY, Neb.-If you notice smoke near Hershey over the next few days, it's likely controlled burning.

The Hershey Volunteer Fire Department said local irrigation companies will be burning vegetation in ditches beginning Tuesday and wrapping up on Thursday, as conditions allow.

The burning will take place north of Platte Valley Rd., between Lamant Rd. and Game Trail Rd.
