UPDATE
September 11, 2011
1030 Hrs.
The roadways and evacuated areas in Montgomery County remain closed. Bull dozers are being used to create fire breaks and many areas are showing signs of progress. Any increase in wind velocity greatly enhances the possibilities of fire flare-ups and hampers extinguishing measures. Afternoon fire containment and/or expansion will affect the time frame to open evacuated areas.
Utility companies are being allowed access to these areas to begin assessments to restore those services.
