Containment of the 11,776-acre Williams Mine Fire northwest of Trout Lake is now at 29%, as Northwest Complex Incident Management Team 13 prepares to transfer fire command over to a local Type 3 team. Spencer Gregory with Team 13 Field Operations says crews have been working the edge from the south climb into the lava screen. To the northwest, masticating and chipping operations continue to develop fuel breaks. Officials say in the coming days, some of the closures and restrictions around the fire will be reduced and some rescinded. The Washington Department of Natural Resources lifted their closures around the fire, while the Gifford Pinchot National Forest still has a closure area, it has been reduced in size. The Confederated Tribes and Bands of the Yakama Nation Tract D Recreation Area is currently closed.
