JEANNE MESERVE, CNN ANCHOR: Here in the U.S., those devastating wildfires out West have reportedly caused the Clinton administration to reassess. "The New York Times" says the administration is looking at its firefighting and forestry strategies and plans to take nationwide a technique used in Flagstaff, Arizona. There, they thin out small trees, leaving larger, more fire-resistant ones behind. With the latest on firefighting efforts in hard-hit western Montana, here's CNN's Greg Lefevre -- Greg.</s>GREG LEFEVRE, CNN CORRESPONDENT: Good morning, Jeanne. Firefighters are thanking the weatherman today. This is the third day of very cool nights. It is still in the 40s out here in the late morning hours. They say that these lower temperatures help them fight the fires and help them gather lines around some of the fires. But the fires are huge, and they are huge still. The Scalcaco (ph) complex, which is just a few miles to the north of us here, continues to rage on, 49,000 acres. That's a very large fire. Only 440 personnel are able to work on that fire. That fire is now 5 percent contained. That's not very much containment, but firefighters will take whatever they can get. Every morning as the crews prepare to leave here, they are briefed on what the major effort is going to be. And as they get their equipment ready, the major fire concern is still what's called the Razor fire to the southwest of us here in Darby, Montana. The Razor fire continues to be a problem because it is running through low canyon area that is thick with old brush, the kind of brush that the Clinton administration is talking about. And that brush provides dense fuel that can heat up in the afternoon and run a fire right up the side of the canyon wall. It is also a very heavily populated area for mountain country. Dozens of homes in the area are causing grave concern for firefighters. So the battle rages on here in Montana. The only relief: snowfall sometime later this year.
