There are reports of another mulch fire at the Shamrock facility. Developing...
UPDATE: "Knoxville Firefighting crews responding to Shamrock Organic were relieved to discover the fire was contained to a piece of equipment called a tub grinder which mulched the wood into mulch. No extensions to the large mulch piles at the scene. The fire is out.
Captain D.J. Corcoran
