Williams Mine Containment At 19%

Containment of the Williams Mine Fire northwest of Trout Lake has moved up to 19%.  Spencer Gregory with Northwest Complex Incident Management Team 13 Field Operations says the cooler and wetter weather is providing great conditions in the effort to put the 11,764 acre fire to bed.  Over a quarter of an inch of rain is forecast for the fire area through the weekend.  Washington Department of Natural Resources lands near Trout Lake and Glenwood remained closed due to the fire, along with the Yakama Nation Tract D Recreation Area.  Level 1 evacuation advisories are in effect for the Trout Lake area.
