episode_narrativeThe largest forest fire of the month blackened about 1,920 acres of the Wharton State Forest in Mullica and Hammonton Townships. One fire fighter suffered heat exhaustion. The fire started about 2.5 miles from the Totem Village in Mullica Township. About 100 persons (75 homes) were evacuated for about a day from that development and placed in the Mullica Township firehouse. The fire was declared contained at 6 p.m. EDT on the 30th. The unseasonably hot and dry weather contributed to a larger than normal number of wild and forest fires in the state of New Jersey. In all 381 wildfires blackened 3,095 acres of forest throughout New Jersey during the month of July.
