Victims’ advocates will be in the neighborhood to assist residents as they return. Residents of the evacuated areas and contractors working with residents in the area are advised that, while the fire line has been completely 'contained,' many hazards and health & safety concerns remain within the fire perimeter area.

The Sheriff’s Office also wants to maintain open access for emergency personnel and firefighters still working in the area. Fire recovery efforts are actively underway, and emergency personnel and firefighters appreciate having unobstructed access to those areas that pose a risk for further fire activity. While active fire conditions have been mostly extinguished, much of the scorched ground is still warm or hot to the touch, and there remain many obstacles and dangers within the entire burned area. These include: downed power lines and poles, fire hot spots, infrastructure damage to roads and rights of way, lack of working utilities (phone, water, electricity), concerns about potable water quality and propane tank integrity, and exposed mine shafts.

Victims’ advocates will be in the neighborhood to assist residents as they return. Residents of the evacuated areas and contractors working with residents in the area are advised that, while the fire line has been completely 'contained,' many hazards and health & safety concerns remain within the fire perimeter area.

The Sheriff’s Office also wants to maintain open access for emergency personnel and firefighters still working in the area. Fire recovery efforts are actively underway, and emergency personnel and firefighters appreciate having unobstructed access to those areas that pose a risk for further fire activity.

No injuries or deaths as a result of the fire have been reported. The Fourmile Canyon wildfire has grown to at least 7,100 acres in size and forced the mandatory evacuation of more than 3,000 residents living in the steep, rugged and heavily forested foothills west of the City of Boulder. Teams are on site to catalog burned structures and to investigate the fire’s cause and origin. A map of the burn area and evacuation perimeter is posted online. More than 200 firefighters, from at least 35 local, regional and national agencies are working to contain the active fire. Eight air tankers and three helicopters joined the effort. Due to a thick inversion layer limiting visibility, air tankers were unable take off Tuesday morning, but dropped more than 93,000 gallons of fire retardant later in the day. Communities east of the Peak-to-Peak Highway, south of Lefthand Canyon Drive, west of Olde Stage Road and north of Boulder Canyon Drive (Colo. Highway 119) will remain evacuated until further notice. Residents will be informed when any evacuations have been lifted. The emergency shelter at the Coors Events Center located on the University of Colorado campus in Boulder is closed. A new overnight emergency shelter has opened at the Boulder YMCA located at 2850 Mapleton Ave. Food, water and insurance resources are available courtesy of the American Red Cross. Boulder County has animal control officers on scene conducting animal evacuations when site access becomes available. Animal evacuation information can be obtained by calling 720-564-2942. An incident call center has been established to assist city and county residents affected by the wildfire. Residents are asked to contact the call center at 303-413-7730 instead of calling 911 unless there is an emergency to report.
