MISSAUKEE COUNTY -- Fire crews with the Department of Natural Resources & Environment are working on two separate wildfires.

The fires began around noon Friday in the northwestern corner of Missaukee County.  One of the fires is 40 acres, the second is about 15 acres.

The DNRE says both are contained.  Crews will remain on scene until dark putting out hotspots and will return Saturday to make sure the fire doesn't rekindle.
