The goal of the planned ignition is to bring the active fire perimeter to already established control lines, under fire behaviour conditions that are more suitable for efficient and effective fire suppression efforts.

The Calcite Creek wildfire south of Princeton saw no growth overnight and remains 1,789 hectares in size, as of July 29. 

There are 29  firefighting personnel and 21 structure protection personnel working this fire.

According to BC Wildfire, crews will be continuing mop-up on the north flank, with the support of heavy equipment.

The crew will also be continuing to wrap a guard along the northwest corner of the fire and tying that into the preexisting guard along the west flank.
