A small, out-of-control wildfire is burning northeast of Moberly Lake. The BC Wildfire said the fire has grown to 0.5 hectares in size.
The fire was discovered on Tuesday just over 2 kilometers from the Salteau First Nation Band Office.
According to the Wildfire Service, the fire is anticipated to spread beyond the current perimeter.
The fire is thought to be human caused. The Wildfire Service said that suppression actions are being taken to limit the spread of the blaze.
There are currently no area restrictions in place. The fire is burning just east of a wildfire that was discovered on April 25th. That 5.5-hectare fire is currently listed as being ‘under control.’
There are currently four wildfires burning across Northeast BC, three of which are listed as ‘under control.’
