Narrative

Due to a wild fire starting on BLM property and burning onto Goldstrike property, the Meikle/Rodeo underground was evacuated as a precaution due to power bumps from electrical lines in the path of the fire. This was just precautionary in case the hoists were to go down from lack of power due to the oncoming fire.
