The Larimer County Sheriff's Officehas received reports of individuals
seeking to charge High Park Fire victims fees of up to $700 to verify
whether or not their structure(s) were damaged by the fire. It is not
known if these solicitors are offering legitimate building inspection
services, or if they are attempting some type of fraud.
The Sheriff's Office wants to remind citizens that county officials
are in the process of making these property assessments and that the
information is available free of charge. Furthermore, most owners of
the properties known to be damaged have already been notified.
The official source for structure verification in the High Park Fire
zone is Larimer County. Property owners are encouraged to call the
Structure Verification Line at (970) 619-4086to verify the condition
of their properties. This phone line is staffed Monday through Friday,
from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.

The High Park Fire is estimated at 87,284 acres, meaning the fire
didnot grow Wednesday. Containment is estimated at 75 percent. The
estimated containment date has been moved up from July 30th to July
15th. The current cost of the fire to date is estimated at 33.5
million dollars. There are 1,313 personnel assigned to the
firefighting effort . Equipment resources include: 6 Type 1 hand
crews, 11 Type 2 hand crews, 103 engines, 11 dozers and 18 water
tenders. Air Resources include; 2 Type I (heavy) helicopters, 2 Type
III (light) helicopters, 1 Type II helicopter with a radiometric
imaging system attached, fixed wing support aircraft, and
availableheavy air tankers.
Current Situation:
Firefighters continue making assessments with local authorities for
orderly re-entry to evacuated subdivisions. Crews are removing hazard
trees along main public roads. Much of the fire shows no smoke, but
substantial heat remains throughout the fire zone. Firefighters are
searching out remaining hotspots throughout the fire and putting them
out. Boyd Lebeda of Colorado State Forestry gave supervisors a
baseball analogy: "We've pitched a great game – now we have to get
these last outs."
The fire team has made many resources available for reassignment to
other fires, but is keeping crews and equipment to sustain effective
suppression work across the High Park fire. Crews patrolled the fire
throughout the night.
Planned Actions:
On all portions of the fire, line reinforcement, holding, mop-up
andstructure protection to maintain existing control lines will
continue. The remote sensing data will be used tactically to guide
firefightersto remaining heat pockets around structures and within
unburned islands in the interior of the burn area. Hazard trees are
being removed along public roads to allowpower companies to restore
electricity and meet re-entry requirements. Evacuated sub-divisions
will be progressively re-opened based on public safety considerations.
Structures Damaged:
The total of homes destroyed to date remains at 257.

High Park Fire officials reopened Red Feather Lakes Road (CR74E) at 5
p.m. yesterday. All of the Glacier View subdivisions except the 12th

warmer and drier with morning sun and a chance of afternoon lightning,
withWSW winds.
