The blaze was burning at mile marker 48.5 in the Keamuku Manuever Area. According to PTA, crews extinguished the flames and pre-positioned heavy equipment just in case.

“Thanks to the team of first responders for jumping into action and stopping a potentially dangerous situation,” PTA stated in a Facebook post.
