PASO ROBLES, CA – At approximately 2:00 p.m. on Monday, September 21 Paso Robles Fire
and Emergency Services was dispatched to the area of Niblick Bridge for a vegetation
fire.
The first fire engine arrived on the scene within approximately 5 minutes. The initial arriving
units found fire burning within a large dead tree in the riverbed, on the south side of Niblick
Bridge. The fire was isolated to a large downed tree and burning with a slow rate of spread
into the surrounding vegetation, despite windy conditions.
Due to the vegetation management treatments, the first arriving fire engine was able to
contain the fire to the dead tree and cancel additional responding fire units. The area of
the fire had recently been grazed by goats and sheep, which reduced the lighter vegetation
that causes fire to spread rapidly, making it difficult to control.
Two fire engines, one squad and one Battalion Chief from Paso Robles responded. Under
the City’s automatic and mutual aid agreements four aircraft, six engines, two dozers,
two hand crews, one water tender and a Battalion Chief responded from cooperating
agencies.
