Containment of the Nena Springs Fire is now up to 80 percent. The fire on the Warm Springs Reservation remains at 40,000 acres in size. A few scattered hot locations within the fire perimeter began to increase in smoke and flame activity in the afternoon. But they were well within the fire perimeter, and the potential for escape is low, even though they will generate additional smoke during the peak burning period of the day. Several crews are spiked-out near the northern edge of the fire to secure the line along the fire’s edge from Nena Creek east to the Deschutes River. As progress continues toward containment, some of the crews, engines, and heavy equipment are being released from this incident and being made available for other fires in the region.
