Guest guest Posted July 16, 2005 Report Share Posted July 16, 2005 Mason Fire Expected To Be Fully Contained Saturday Firefighting Costs Exceed $4.5 Million POSTED: 7:36 am MDT July 15, 2005 UPDATED: 7:45 am MDT July 15, 2005 Firefighters hope to have the Mason Fire, burning in southern Colorado, contained by Saturday night. Full containment means that the fire won't be able to spread. The blaze has burned more than 12,000 acres since it was started by lighting July 6. More than 800 people are fighting the fire, which has now cost nearly $4.5 million to fight, authorities said. The blaze that forced an estimated 5,000 people out of their homes near Beulah is now 70 percent contained. In the meantime, smoke jumpers are battling a dozen small fires started by lightning near Durango. Those fires are small, such as smoldering stumps, and are not expected to spread, said Jen Chase of the Rocky Mountain Coordination Center in Denver. A majority of wildfires are extinguished before they can spread. In the past two days, 22 wildfires across the state burned just 12 acres as firefighters were able to keep them in check.

Please note that Saturn, L4, is not only strongly afflicted in the natal chart but also combust in transit.
