SANTIAGO FIRE 10/30 FIRE at 85% CONTAINMENT as of 6:00 pm
The following information is updated as of 6:00 pm 10/30/07
The Santiago Fire continues to move to the east and north approaching Modjeska, Silverado, and Lost Woman Canyons. Mandatory evacuations remain in place for the canyon areas of Silverado, Black Star, and Baker Canyons along with Joplin Ranch. All school s are open except Orange Unified's Silverado Canyon E.S. The district expects to open that school on Thursday November 1st.
Evacuees from Black Star, Baker, and most of Silverado Canyons may go to the Albertson's shopping center at the corner of Jamboree Road and Chapman Avenue (8440 E. Chapman Avenue, Orange), where OCFA Occupant Liaisons will escort them into the evacuation area to check on their homes, collect prescription medications, and tend to pets. Unfortunately, potential fire activity in Silverado Canyon southeast of OCFA Fire Station #14 (19402 Silverado Canyon Rd.) prohibits the escorting of those residents in that area at this time.
The following parks have reopened to the public:
Aliso & Wood Canyons Wildernss Park
Caspers Wilderness Park
Heritage Hill Historic Site
Laguna Coast Wilderness Park
Peters Canyon Regional Park
Riley Wilderness Park
