If they actually do have many fires to deal with (which I doubt, most firefighting departments don't) then they can just put a barrier around it and leave it. No need to babysit.

Most bushfire season fire fighters are very busy; in the 2008-2009 season it lasted from September to March. c) the best way to contain a lithium fire is to keep the temperature down, which means fire fighters on site with hoses for an extended period.
