The Moon Fire, which started on August 13 in Los Angeles County, has burned 15 acres over four months, and was fully contained by the crew.
Full containment of a wildfire means it is surrounded by control lines, which prevent it from spreading further, although it may still burn inside those lines.
Containment is expressed as a percentage and reflects how much of the fire perimeter is enclosed by control lines, impacting the firefighting strategy.
Controlling a fire after containment is crucial; it involves ensuring the fire doesn't cross the containment line to achieve overall safety.
