From the summary on inciweb tonight:
“The Basin Complex Fire, which started on June 21, was declared 100% contained at 6:00pm today, July 27. The fire has burned 162,818 acres to date; however, the final acreage will be somewhat higher due to the continued burning of islands of vegetation within the fire’s interior.
Approximately 560 firefighters are still assigned to the Basin Complex this evening, but heavy demobilization of resources is underway. Some crews will remain in the area to continue mop-up and to rehabilitate fire control lines and roads.”
Finally, thank God!
Thank God! Its about time.
Now we need some soft soaking rains or heavy fog for the next few months, so the new plants and grasses take root. 🙂
…..THE BEST NEWS I HAVE HEARD IN A VERY LONG TIME. THE LIGHT ALWAYS PREVAILS OVER THE DARKNESS………AT LAST, THE HEALING…….. I love you Big Sur.
