## Narrative

The fire started from the result of a cloth tarp being used as a weather shield to prevent a compressor from freezing during cold weather. The tarp made contact with the muffler of a compressor and caught on fire. The wind blew the burning tarp off the well pad and into the grass causing the grass to ignite. The compressor is the property of Anadarko Petroleum Company.
