‼️Concern #2‼️
All Landfill sites have a Tire Recycling Program it is at the entry of every site. After 30 Hours of fighting the St. Barbe Landfill Fire we felt we had it extinguished enough to give our first responders a break. Unfortunately, it ignited it again and caught several tires that have been tossed in the landfill with residential garbage. FYI this very hot, raging black smoke fire was 24 inches from the tree line. Please do better.

‼️CONCERN #1‼️
Day 1 of after reopening the Sub 3 Landfill we find this at the top of the pile. These propane tanks exploded all around our first responders while they tried to extinguish the fire, making it very dangerous to do their job while already in a very dangerous situation. We can do better please recycle your combustion tanks through the proper programs that is offered at our landfills.
