It is one of two major California blazes that have destroyed 31 homes and about 30,000 acres of wildland, brush and timber since the weekend.
But Dwight Barnett, a spokesman for the Tennessee Division of Forestry, said there were 26 wildland fires on the Fourth of July, which burned just 113 acres.
The plan also included a "25 acre farm and 25 acre wildland area" for science study.
