Crews will continue today
strengthening and mopping up on the south fire. Firefighters have
completed mop up work on the north fire and will continue to patrol and
monitor the fire perimeter. Firefighting personnel have started to be
released from the fire to return to their home units. The type 3
incident management team will be preparing to transition the fire back
to the local agencies tomorrow morning.
The
Douglas County Complex fires started Friday July 10, 2015 at
approximately 6:00 PM, east of Waterville, WA. The five lightening
sparked fires merged into two large fires. Both fires are being managed
as the Douglas County Complex.
There
have been no reports of structures lost or injuries at this time. All
evacuation orders have been lifted. Firefighters and the incident
management team would like to thank everyone affected by the fire for
their understanding and cooperation.
