## Narrative

A lightning strike 1/2 mile from Emigrant CIC plant initiated a small wild land fire. This location is within the POO boundary of the Emigrant mine site. As this fire was small,  the location was quite inaccessible and before the MERT members that had been dispatched to Emigrant for an unrelated event could access the fire an air attack plane extinguished the fire.
