South Bend Fire Update: July 15, 2022

South Bend Fire
Publication Type: News -


July 15, 2022Size: 675 acresContainment: 45%Date Started: July 14, 2022
Last night TAMFS dozers continued to construct containment lines around the perimeter of the fire through late hours of the night, taking advantage of the minimized fire activity.  Aerial support showed to be very beneficial in assisting the engines with fire suppression.
There were several structures that were threatened but saved, and no structure losses have been reported. 
This morning, the incident commander, on board of a helicopter, flew a recon flight over the fire to assess the size and progress of fire suppression, and also to develop a tactical plan for resources. 
Dozers will continue to work their way around the fire, removing any constructing containment lines, and improving any areas of concern. Engines are locating smokes around the containment lines and cooling them off.
