An agricultural burn in Colorado has scorched almost 900 acres, authorities said Monday night.
In a statement posted to Facebook, the Rio Blanco County Sheriff s Office (RBCSO) said the Meeker area fire had spread over 890 acres and is 60% contained.
In details provided in the post as well as a Sunday post, the RBCSO noted that the county s communications center had received a 911 call on Sunday, April 11 after 1 p.m. reporting that the burn had gotten out of control and that there are currently resources working on securing containment lines and conducting burn out operations.
The agency said that while crews had made excellent progress, wildfire behavior in the County Road 8 Fire is largely contingent upon weather and fuel conditions and the potential for fire activity remains high.
