We have a team of USFWS Resource Advisors to address suppression repair at #SanDiegoNWR after the #Border2Fire. Suppression repair can help minimize immediate impacts to resources & prevent further damage, like erosion - esp important work in the #WildlandUrbanInterface.📸USFWS

#Border2Fire [final] The fire is 6,625 acres and is now 100% contained. A huge thank you to everyone who assisted us with this fire. Your support and teamwork are greatly appreciated!
Twenty-one days ago, Strike Team 9171C drove to Southern California to fight the #PalisadesFire. These firefighters protected as many homes as they could. Then, in anticipation of more Santa Ana winds, they drove to San Diego where they were woken up in the middle of the night to fight the #PaulaFire. They stayed in the area and battled the #Border2Fire. Now, this team of hardworking heroes just arrived in the Bay Area. They’re proud of the work they’ve done, and are looking forward to spending time with friends and family. Glad to have these firefighters home safe and sound! #CaWx@sccounty@sanmateoco@calfireSCU
Very grateful for the incredible firefighters who work tirelessly, day and night, to protect lives and keep communities safe.
While fires can be devastating, we're relieved that all inmates in San Diego remain safe and that the prisons were not impacted by the #Border2Fire.
