Fire Update
| BY Ingrid
Friday, October 4, 2024 12:21 PM We dealt with the last of the smouldering material on site at approx. 10am yesterday. We didn’t report it yesterday as we wanted both the rest of Thursday and the night time period to make sure we wouldn’t have a re-ignition as last time.
Tuesday, October 1, 2024 4:51 PM The site team have spent the day excavating the material, however due to very high winds the smoulder has spread along the surface of the pile. Due to the excessive winds, we anticipate the smoulder will run into Wednesday 2nd Oct before being totally extinguished.
Tuesday, October 1, 2024 8:48 AM The material that was screened out of the fire material has started to smoulder on site this morning. There are no naked flames present. We are managing it onsite and should have any smouldering out by lunch time, we will keep you informed as the day goes on. On our odour checks this morning there is a low level of burning odour in Kirk Ella.
