That brushfire 25 miles northwest of Malibu is now 100 percent contained.
The South Fire … on South Mountain near Fillmore … burned 131 acres Sunday and Monday.

It may cost about 11 percent more … but all City of Malibu facilities have been switched over to 100% renewable electricity … muhch of it generated from solar power.
The Clean Power Alliance is offering the all green power at a rate that is about 10 percent less than that offered by Southern California Edison for its 100 percent green package.
CPA purchases clean power on the open market … and Southern California Edison (SCE) delivers it.
And CPA can get a better deal than Edison on green power.
Residential customers in Malibu have been switched over by a city council decision … to a 50 percent green package from the CPA.
That rate is exactly as much as the Edison rate … but Edison is delivering only 36 percent green power.
The rest comes from burning hydrocarbons.
The city says that some customers may have noticed a recent increase in their electric bills.
That is unrelated to the City joining the CPA.

KBUU normally does not cover the Khardashians.
We will make an exception here.
Reality television stars Kim and Kourtney Kardashian attended a rally last weekend in Simi Valley … marking the 60th anniversary of the nuclear meltdown at a nuclear reactor just 25 miles from malibu.
A reactor at the Santa Susana Field Lab … in the hills between Chatswoeth … Calabasas and Simi Valley in 1959 … it had partial nuclear meltdown.
Part of this site is drained by Malibu Creek.
And the mess has never been cleaned up.
The U S Energy Department … Boeing and the state all share responsibility for the disaster cleanup.
Last weekend … activists used the 60th anniversary of the nuclear near meltdown to push for a long-planned, much-delayed cleanup of the site.
The Rock the Cleanup gathering had about 200 people attended.
Including the Khardashians.
They tweeted that they live near the site … and are incredulous that it has not been cleaned up yet … 60 years after the nuclear near meltdown.
