Date	Time	News and Notes
09/04/2013	0630	CA-SRF Corral Complex: 12,272 acres, 56% contained. Expected containment 09/10/2013. Pincha-Tulley /Mendes, Unified Command The fire is expected to slowly spread towards the southwest into Horse Linto Creek and to the northwest in the South Fork of the Tish Tang Creek. There is a potential for the fire to move to the west, which would threaten the eastern boundary of the Hoopa Valley Indian Reservation. Good relative humidity recovery with limited fire behavior; the fire was smoldering and creeping with rolling material still a concern. The fire was most active in the southern portion. CA-KNF Forks Complex: 35,892 acres, 55% contained. Expected containment 09/15/2013. Johnson, NORCAL 2. Fire will continue to have minimal movement/spread. A small amount of fire growth is expected in Division G where pockets of heavy fuels continue to burn in the China and Granite Creek drainages. Smoldering and creeping is expected to continue in Granite and China Creek drainages during a shortened burn period. The fire continues to be fuels and slope driven as general winds are rarely surfacing in the drainage bottoms where most of the isolated heat remains stalled. No movement of fire outside of the control lines is anticipated. Fire behavior is expected to remain minimal due to increased fine fuel moistures due to cloud cover and higher humidity.
