Merely removing landslide debris.

Maybe they will key something in, but those photos are not impressive regarding repair

CAJON PASS VEG FIRE
Okay, we are on scene. We do have a confirmed vegetation fire. Locations will be just north of Blue Cut. I'd like to go in and continue the resources. The fire is in about a quarter acre, with the moderate of spread. We do have potential for 10 acres. In addition, the engineer 33 will be assuming IC.
