The southern edge of the Lee Fire has reached the Garfield County line, prompting the above changes to evacuation status.

 

Zone 81 and 85 are on top of the Roan Plateau in industrial landscape and BLM area (already under a closure), not residential areas.

 

Fire managers’ strategic planning includes multiple secondary and contingency lines between the fire’s edge and the southern edge of the Roan Plateau.

 

As a reminder:

GO = Evacuate immediately from your area. Leave now – danger in your area.

SET = Short notice evacuation likely in your area. Prepare for sudden evacuations. Leave now if you need extra time.

READY = Possible evacuation in your area. Prepare, monitor, and pack your valuables.
