"It was on the west side of the of the Camp Parks property in the training area," said Gannod.

According to Gannod, Camp Parks Fire Department, Cal Fire and the Alameda County Fire Department responded to the fire.

"Thanks to the quick response from Alameda County Fire, Cal Fire and our Camp Parks Fire Department they prevented damage to any structures off post or on post," commented Gannod. "The fire is 100 percent contained at this time."

"A preliminary investigation shows that sparks from welding may have started the fire," he said.
