The Rush Fire is currently 140,949 acres, 25% contained, and is burning east of Highway 395 near Ravendale.
“The Rush Fire is a cause for concern for residents and ranchers in the area,” said Matt Johnson, Deputy Incident Commander for NorCal Team 2. “We want to provide the most current information available to residents and make sure we hear and understand their concerns.”
Representatives from NorCal Interagency Incident Management Team (NorCal Team 2), the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Eagle Lake Field Office, and the Lassen County Sherriff will provide updates on the Rush Fire, closures and voluntary evacuations in place, and how the BLM is addressing natural, cultural, and grazing concerns in the fire area.
