Narrative

At about 8:22 a.m. a fire was discovered on belt conveyor 62BC11. The fire was confined to the 62BC11 area and was extinguished by 9:15 a.m. The fire is believed to have been ignited by hot clinker fines contacting the rubber parts of the conveyor. This unexpected release of fines may have been the result of work in the precal system to remove restrictions.
