State resources from Texas A&M Forest Service (TAMFS) arrived to assist local responders. TAMFS dozers from Burkburnett office constructed containment lines around the perimeter of the fire. Local crews conducted burn out operations to help create control lines. Three Single Engine Air Tankers (SEAT) conducted retardant drop operations to slow the fire progress and to cool off fire for ground crews to conduct direct fire attack, and Air Attack (AA) aircraft provided situational awareness of the fire activity. Crews patrolled, mopped up, and secured control lines. Initially three structures were reported threatened, the threat was mitigated, removing the threat from structures. All TAMFS resources have cleared and enroute to home office.
