Sending units for structure protection.

TLC is dispatching an additional unit for structure protection.
SQF sent DIV 2, Bc-21, 22, and 2 type 2 crews.
Porterville City also sending a patrol

AA canceled his order for the 2 additional tankers, they were still pending at South Ops.

IC was stating possibly 75 acres. Losing the 3rd tanker the fire had received to other fires in South Ops.

Aircraft released, sounds like a done deal. Will have night shift though.
