00:00There is a lot of concern because of the fires and especially in the area where the forests are on fire.

00:09This is affecting more than 2,100 hectares.

00:15There is a lot of concern about these fires in this community.

00:20For a few days now, firefighters have been working non-stop on this issue.

00:27Once again, we have to talk about winters and once again we have to talk about fire, unfortunately.

00:32We are going to go to Mari Noche. There is Carla Girandini.

00:35Carla, how are you? Good morning. How is the situation?

00:41Hello Javi, Nora, good morning.

00:43Well, the fire remains active with an increase in high temperatures.

00:49Different sectors began to be activated with new columns of fire.

00:53This was reported yesterday by the National Park, with the last part that came out last night.

01:00Here, Javi, we have very high temperatures. Today it is 24 degrees.

01:05This temperature will rise until approximately next Wednesday.

01:10Here in Patagonia, we are on fire.

01:14It is a tremendous heat.

01:17By the way, we have to clarify that it is good for the people who come here to the province to be very careful.

01:24We are at 85% and we have to be careful of the people who enter to do camping or whatever,

01:33to do it in places specially designed for that.

01:37How are you working? With planes, helicopters, beyond land work?

01:42I mean, the air. How is it?

01:45Well, yesterday there was a monitoring with a helicopter to update this surface that you were saying,

01:52which so far is 2,122 hectares.

01:55What they say is that it is a number that can vary depending, obviously, on these updates that are made in the field.

02:02You saw that sometimes we said a number, then we went up a little.

02:05Well, this is normal that it varies.

02:07They told us specifically to know the fluctuation of the calculations.

02:13We are going to repeat, obviously, that it is not affecting populated areas or public use,

02:18that still the tourism trails, let's say, are still open,

02:22that the same people who come to vacation, if they are going to go through that sector,

02:27let's remember that it is also far from Bariloche, it is the sector of Lake Los Manzanos.

02:33Well, there are areas and trails that are specifically made for tourism,

02:38but well, it would not be affecting this yet,

02:40but anything you put on the national parks page and there they tell you which are the trails that are open

02:46and, incidentally, also make the tracking record, which is very important.

02:50Then I tell you, Javi, in the place there are like more than 70 people, 70 brigadists,

02:56and there is a prefecture boat, two land vehicles, two helicopters,

03:04two hydrant planes, sorry, and a plane specifically also an observer,

03:10which are generally the ones that go out in the morning to see the situation.

03:14We also spoke with the chief of firefighters of the SPLIT of El Bolsón and also from here,

03:20and what they told us so far is that although they had meetings today,

03:24tomorrow they will have another meeting again,

03:26surely it will be to see how the reality continues to advance.

03:31Javi, as I was saying, it is so hot that this sometimes does not allow the good work of the brigadists,

03:39because there is a lot of smoke, a lot of heat, plus the fire and it becomes complicated to enter.

03:44Overwhelming, clearly, a great job.

03:46I was seeing the fighters, the brigadists, who are approximately 70,

03:52they had to spend the night down there, right?

03:54In the camps, they could not go to their homes,

03:57because there was a statement thanking them for their work, their dedication,

04:00it really is a very hard task.

04:05Yes, totally, Nora.

04:07The truth is, it is an extremely hard job, as you said,

04:12we have to be grateful to those who are there putting their chest out,

04:16even a 31st, a 1st were there facing them, right?

04:21And many also in a camp, because there are several who are in a camp,

04:25there are 27, some were able to fold them, others not,

04:29as you said, it is something that we have to be grateful for,

04:33totally, that they are there facing this, and well, it gets complicated.

04:38Exactly, and what is expected now?

04:40That this extends, I say, the heat surely should not be helping, right?

04:47No, that's exactly what is happening now, the heat is not helping,

04:52well, they are doing what they can, that's precisely why I imagine these meetings,

04:57that surely now, in these days, we will have news between today and tomorrow,

05:01surely something will come out of these meetings,

05:04let's hope that, well, that it does not continue to extend,

05:07we still know that it is active, unfortunately,

05:09and that of these 2,122 hectares, the fire is spreading everywhere,

05:14that they also told us this through the guides,

05:17that it was a different fire from the others,

05:20that in the afternoon there is still movement, at night there is still movement,

05:25so well, this also made it more difficult.

05:28Exactly, well, it is a fact that, let's say,

05:31it still cannot be established with certainty, right?

05:35How it originated, how it started, all this, right?

05:41What the coordinator of the SPRIF of Rio Negro told us the other day,

05:46is that apparently it would have been a lightning,

05:49just that it fell on December 16,

05:51also even those of Civil Protection told us the same,

05:54we know that these electric storms,

05:57there is like lightning, what they explained to us from the ignorance of the area,

06:02that there was lightning inside the tree or in the root,

06:07and this later, well, generated like a, I don't know,

06:10as if it were something that is lit there,

06:13and then, that's why later, it seems strange to say from December 16,

06:18but these things are things that happen.

06:21No, it is that you know what happens,

06:23luckily it is not the hand of the man, I say.

06:26Brigadists have explained to me several times that,

06:29in reality, the brigadists have to continue acting

06:33when it is seen that there is white smoke and everything is off,

06:36on the surface, why?

06:38And keep hydrating the earth,

06:40because below the roots are still on fire,

06:44then that goes below the earth with fire,

06:48and it is obviously burning other plants,

06:51other vegetation that is either dry or has not been burned by the flames.

06:57So the issue is not only the fire that is on the surface,

07:01in the trunk, in the branches, in the leaves,

07:04but also in the roots,

07:05that is the concern many times of this type of fire,

07:09because it obviously spreads too,

07:11and under the ashes, when a mattress is formed,

07:14a kind of ash mattress,

07:16they have to remove, once they turn it off,

07:19to see if there is still ash underneath,

07:23or in this case, burning leaves.

07:25It's like when you make a barbecue,

07:27you see that you put all the ash together,

07:30when the barbecue is over,

07:31and you are going to take it out,

07:33and on the outside it seems that it is off,

07:37there is not even smoke,

07:38but you throw it in a basket of papers,

07:41and it catches fire.

07:42Why is that?

07:43Because it is still on fire underneath,

07:45so you have to remove it and obviously turn it off.

07:48It is a task that takes a lot,

07:50but the firefighters have to do it.

07:52But what anguish for the firefighters,

07:53because you see that you are turning off the fire,

07:54and that it is still active down there,

07:56which is very distressing.

07:58No, and also the anguish of those, for everyone,

08:01but especially like Carla, who lives there,

08:03surrounded by so much nature,

08:05knowing that the fire is on,

08:07is not recovering it practically more,

08:09or after a long time too.

08:11Well, Carla, we expect more news about this,

08:18and we will also talk about the season,

08:20which surely started today in a very positive way.

08:26Yes, totally.

08:27See you later, Carla.

08:29See you later.

08:33And this is last-minute information,

08:35we also have to talk about fire,

08:37isn't that right, Mercedes?

08:38Exactly.

08:39Attention if you are a user of Tren Roca,

08:41because it is working with limited service.

08:44We are talking about the branches with Ezeiza and Bosques,

08:48which go via Temperley.

08:50As a result of this,

08:51we are seeing a tree that breaks,

08:53one of those branches that catches fire,

08:56and what happened with this branch,

08:58the origin is still unknown,

09:00the important thing is that the firemen

09:02have already put out the fire.

09:04The high voltage cable, right?

09:06Of course, it dragged the cables,

09:08and it also affected a catenary,

09:11which is what is causing the service to be interrupted.

09:14The catenary is the one that supplies energy,

09:16the operation of the train,

09:18that is why at this time they also have a limited service

09:22between Quilmes and La Plata.

09:24So be careful with that,

09:26although the fire is under control,

09:28it is off,

09:29the corresponding tasks are still being done

09:31to resume the service.

09:33They estimate half an hour and 40 minutes.

09:35Let's see, let's confirm these data

09:37and also expand them with Cristian Baglietto.

09:40Cristian, how are you? Good afternoon.

09:42How are you, Javier? Good afternoon.

09:44And it is exactly the information,

09:46the Tren Roca does not arrive or leave

09:49the head station of Constitución.

09:51Look, you are mentioning it,

09:53it is a technical problem,

09:55because a tree fell and touched the catenary

09:57in Temperley,

09:59then we observe the fire,

10:01for this reason they had to cut

10:03the electricity supply,

10:05because otherwise it would be a catastrophe,

10:07because the firefighters have to go to put out the fire,

10:09to put out the fire they have to cut the electricity supply.

10:11Because they cut the electricity supply,

10:14the branch,

10:16this is operating in a limited way

10:18between Temperley and Corn,

10:20the branch Ezeiza with short service

10:22between Temperley and Ezeiza,

10:24and the branch Bosques operates

10:26via Temperley with limited service

10:28between Temperley and Bosques.

10:30In addition, the branch La Plata,

10:32limited between Quilmes and La Plata,

10:34and the branch Bosques via Quilmes,

10:36limited service between Quilmes and Bosques.

10:38Because of this inconvenience,

10:40we say that the Tren Roca does not arrive

10:42or leave the head station of Constitución,

10:44it is believed that in 40 minutes,

10:46an hour, the service

10:48would be working normally, Javier.

10:50Well, it's a big problem

10:52that obviously they don't leave

10:54or get to Constitución,

10:56especially at this time of the afternoon

10:58where little by little that branch

11:00begins to populate with people

11:02who either arrive to work in the afternoon

11:04or others who finish the schedule

11:06and return home, right?

11:08Of course, Javier, you are mentioning it

11:10because many of the people

11:12who have to travel to Avellaneda,

11:14Quilmes, as well as Loma de Zamora,

11:16Lanús, Olón,

11:18they can't take it to Constitución

11:20because all the branches

11:22that enter or leave Constitución

11:24are interrupted,

11:26they are arriving to Quilmes

11:28or to Temperley,

11:30to there, because as this

11:32originated in Temperley,

11:34what they did was cut the electric supply,

11:36by cutting the electric supply,

11:38the catenarias do not have electricity

11:40because of the redundancy,

11:42for that reason the electric part

11:44is cut to Constitución,

11:46so you have to observe what is happening

11:48at Constitución Station

11:50where many passengers

11:52take alternatives,

11:54and what are the alternatives?

11:56The bus stops, if there are many people

11:58on the bus stops.

12:00And with this heat,

12:02much more, and the patience

12:04that obviously we hope

12:06will be resolved quickly there,

12:08in that place.

12:10Thank you, Cristian.
