Firefighters got little rest after a June 25 brushfire scorched almost 200 acres near the Stanford Dish: a smaller blaze that charred another 20 acres in the Stanford foothills kept them scrambling on Thursday.

The fire, which broke out to the north of the June 25 site near Junipero Serra Boulevard, was reported at 1:20 p.m. on Thursday. Local and regional firefighters, supported by helicopters and aircraft, were able to contain the blaze by 4:30 p.m. on the same day.

According to Stanford Department of Public Safety Deputy Chris Cohendet, two firefighters were treated for heat exhaustion, but no structural damage was reported.

“The field was closed, so nobody was at the site,” Cohendet said. “Yesterday’s fire wasn’t in the same location as the one on June 25, but it did move a little bit and butted up against the burned areas. In fact, the burned shrubs from last week helped to contain the fire yesterday.”

Cohendet said that a section of Junipero Serra Boulevard was temporarily closed to accommodate responding units. Power to about 2,000 houses was also briefly shut down while firefighters from nearby cities and from the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection worked to control the blaze.

Cohendet gave advice for residents coping with a particularly dry season.

“Be careful,” he said. “Don’t play with matches, don’t put cigarettes out on the ground, and throw out trash. Even discarded glass can start a fire, so be cautious.”

The cause of the fire is still unknown. The Dish area will remained closed until further notice.
