FOR THE NEXT 40 YEARS.
>> WE'RE ALSO TOLD NEARLY 20
300 HOMES HAVE BEEN DESTROYED.
IN FACT, WE WERE ASKED TO BE
CAREFUL ABOUT SHOWING BUILDINGS
TORCHED BY FIRES BECAUSE MANY
HOMEOWNERS AREN'T AWARE YET
THAT THEIR HOUSES BURNED.
IT'S A REALIZATION THEY'LL FACE
IN THE WEEKS AHEAD.
THIS AS SOME WORRY HELP IS
DWINDLING.
DWINDLING. >> THE RESPONSE IN A LOT
OF WAYS IS STARTING TO EBB.
WE HAD TREMENDOUS RESOURCES
COME IN FROM ALL OVER THE
COUNTRY TO HELP WITH THE

RECOVER AND HOW HOPEFULLY WE
CAN MITIGATE FUTURE IMPACT FROM
DISASTERS LIKE WILDFIRE.
