ALMA, Kan. (AP) — Kansas residents are cleaning up from another round of rural wildfires that have burned at least 18 square miles.

Alma City Councilman Dan Deiter spent Wednesday sorting through debris at the Catholic school where he taught. Deiter tells KSNT-TV there’s “no hope” for saving the building.

In Riley County, authorities say workers from a Kansas State University agriculture program started a fire that burned about 300 acres and destroyed a mobile home.

Kansas authorities say wildfires in several Kansas counties have been largely contained.  The Kansas Adjutant General’s office said in an emailed statement Wednesday that the fires in the northeast Kansas counties of Wabaunsee, Geary, Riley and Pottawatomie are for the most part under control. The office says crews continue to monitor small smoldering patches in the region.

The office also says a grass fire in Morton County in southwest Kansas has been contained with the exception of hot spots.

The grassfire in northern Oklahoma is also no longer threatening Comanche County, Kansas.

The adjutant general’s office also says the State Emergency Operations Center in Topeka has returned to normal operations but is maintaining contact with local officials in the affected counties
