CONTAINED Brush Fire 09/10/2024 INC#0764

CONTAINED Brush Fire; INC#0764; 10:27AM; 22340 W Germain St; https://bit.ly/3ME0hq1; #Chatsworth #HummingbirdFire; Over 150 firefighters battled flames in extreme triple-digit heat, where flames quickly spread through the dry and pre-heated vegetation. Crews initially stopped forward progress, but a sudden increase in the wind caused embers to jump over the containment lines and caused the fire to continue to grow. Ultimately, crews were able to stop the spread at approximately 10 total acres, narrowly saving several homes that back up against the wildland. Four firefighters were transported to a local hospital in fair condition with heat-related illness symptoms. The cause of the fire remains under investigation.; FS 96; Batt 15; Valley Bureau; Council District 12; BC10 BC12 BC15 BC17 CE59 CE84 CM40 CM42 CM43 DT2 DZ42 E10 E103 E104 E105 E106 E107 E12 E15 E2 E21 E26 E27 E28 E29 E290 E296 E37 E61 E64 E66 E69 E70 E72 E73 E8 E87 E90 E93 E94 EM15 ER1 ER3 H1 H2 H5 HA1 HA2 HA5 HE2 HE3 HE4 HT2 JT1 PI2 RA106 RA107 RA87 RA896 RA90 T90 T96 TP1 WT88; CH8; 18; Nicholas Prange
