Firefighters Remain at 6-Acre Recycling Plant
From Times Staff and Wire Reports
Firefighters said they would remain at a six-acre recycling plant until today to completely douse a blaze that started last week.
The smoldering cinders at Bairos Recycling, which caught fire Friday, were fully contained and about 50% controlled by Sunday, Fresno Battalion Chief Tim Henry said.
On Monday, firefighters continued spraying water over a lightly smoking paper pile in the center of the yard and mopping up a papery soup created by 6 inches of water.
