"Contained is good. "Controlled" is better. "Out" is best.
Scott A. McLean, Deputy Chief, CAL FIRE / HQ, Chief of Information explained the differences in an email to Wine Industry Insight: "A fire is contained when it is surrounded on all sides by some kind of boundary but is still burning and has the potential to jump a boundary line.
"The boundary may be a “fire line” which is a strip of area where the vegetation has been removed to deny the fire fuel, or a river, a freeway or some other barrier which is expected to stop the spread of the fire. Hose lines from fire engines may also contribute to a fire being surrounded and contained.
"A fire is controlled when there is no further threat of it jumping a containment line. While crews continue to do mop-up work within the fire lines, the fire fight is over." Finally, according to the National Wildfire Coordinating Group: "a fire is considered 'out- when NO hot spots are detected within containment lines for at least 48 hours."
Containment is a measure of the % of the fire perimeter
McLean also sent a PIO map which shows perimeters (a portion of which is reproduced below). Red marks the un-contained area and and black is con contained.
