Fire crews battle unstable terrain and deep-seated flames using dirt smothering and water sparingly, warning of possible flare-ups and lingering smoke. The city is also taking legal action against ECCO Recycling, the site’s operator, for permit violations including illegal dry waste storage, pushing for removal of material and a court order to halt trash intake and eventually shut down the facility. Air quality concerns remain, with monitoring focused on fine particles—city officials say health risks are low but caution those near the smoke may experience irritation, especially if they have pre-existing conditions. Mayor and council members are urging the province for more detailed air data, which is expected soon. This unfolding crisis combines firefighting challenges, corporate accountability, and environmental vigilance. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
