The Palisades Fire continues to burn and is now visible from the San Fernando Valley.
ABC7 has received multiple calls from residents concerned that this is a new fire, but it is actually the Palisades Fire.
Parts of Encino are currently under a mandatory evacuation order.
A new mandatory evacuation order has been issued for the Palisades Fire for an area from Sunset Boulevard to Encino Reservoir, and from the 405 Freeway west to Mandeville Canyon. That area was previously under an evacuation warning.
Parts of Brentwood, Encino and the Getty Center are in the area of the evacuation zone, according to an LAFD map.
The fire is burning toward the 405 Freeway and the main area of concern is Mandeville Canyon where there are large homes, LAFD Capt. Erik Scott told Eyewitness News.
Emergency evacuation centers have opened amid the Palisades Fire flare up at the following locations:
Van Nuys Sherman Oaks Rec Center, 14201 Huston Street in Sherman Oaks
Lanark Recreation Center, 21816 Lanark Street in Canoga Park
The rumor that Los Angeles Fire Department Chief Kristin Crowley was fired is false, according to Mayor Karen Bass' office. Chief Crowley also did not quit.
"The Mayor and Chief met. The priority remains fighting these fires and protecting Angelenos," read a statement from the Mayor's office.
Some are questioning why the Santa Ynez reservoir, located in the Palisades Highlands, was offline during the firefight.
The reservoir has a capacity of holding 117 million gallons of water.
It was closed for repairs to its cover, so it could not be used to help battle the flames though it's located right in the middle of the Palisades.
Gov. Gavin Newsom has directed an independent investigation into reports of loss of water pressure to fire hydrants and the unavailability of water supplies from the reservoir.
A former LADWP official told ABC News that access to the reservoir may have helped early on in the firefight, but it would not have been enough to fight the fire.
"It could have made some difference in supporting the pressure loss early on, but it would not have lasted the whole fire," Martin Adams, who recently retired after 40 years of working at LADWP, most recently as General Manager, told ABC News.
"It might have helped for a little bit, but it wouldn't have been the be-all end-all," Adams said.
ABC News contributed to this report.
