Additionally, Zones K29A, K30B and K31, which were under evacuation orders, were reduced to evacuation warnings. These zones encompass the western, eastern and southern edges of the fire.
Zones K27, K29B and K30A remain under an evacuation order.
Zones K29A, K30B and K31 are currently under an evacuation warning.
Despite relaxed restrictions, the public should be aware of continued firefighting activities taking place. Smoldering materials remain an issue along with other hazards. Reduce your vehicle speed and be courteous to equipment moving back and forth. Please report any dangerous situations you come across right away to law enforcement.
