Monitoring Palisades Wildfire – Update #4

Posted on

University officials continue to monitor the Palisades Fire which is now approximately five miles east of the Malibu campus and has burned more than 2,900 acres. While the fire is not currently a threat to campus, flames are now visible from the campus.

As the fire moves westward and approaches the burn scar from the Franklin Fire, fuel for the fire will significantly decrease. However, if the fire threatens the Malibu Campus, the EOC may activate its shelter in place protocol via an Everbridge message to the community. If the University community needs to shelter in place, you will be directed to the Tyler Campus Center (TCC) and/or Payson Library. While Malibu City may issue instructions, including evacuation orders, the Pepperdine community should follow University instruction.
