It is normally expressed as a percentage and it refers to how much of the fire perimeter has been surrounded\/enclosed by a control line that firefighters create. The containment percentage indicates a certain level of control, but it doesn&#8217;t always correlate to safety level. Also, it&#8217;s important to note that containment doesn&#8217;t mean a fire is out.<\/p>\n<p><!-- --><!--]--><!--[--><\/p>\n<p><b>How is containment measured? <\/b><\/p>\n<p><!-- --><!--]--><!--[--><\/p>\n<p>The incident&#8217;s central command constantly receives progress reports from firefighters on the ground. As the fireline is constructed, inspected or reinforced, mappers record those details to adjust the containment percentage.
