Advisory: Firefighters to Perform Wildland Training, Control Burns in Antioch

On Monday, Contra Costa County Fire will be performing a controlled burn in the form of a multi-agency training at the hills at Vista Grande and Canada Valley in Antioch.

The training will be held throughout the week between 10:00 am to 4:00 pm where smoke is expected to be observed from parts of Antioch, Oakley and the bypass. The training will end on Friday.

There is no cause for alarm if you see large amounts of smoke as they will have firefighters, fire engines and dozers in the area. This is an annual training for CONFIRE and neighboring districts.
