Firefighters in Rankin Inlet are trying to contain a dump fire the fire chief called “suspicious” and said could smoulder for weeks.
The blaze at the community landfill was first reported on Saturday around 7 p.m., fire Chief Mark Wyatt said. Firefighters and the hamlet’s public works staff used dirt to smother the flames and worked until about midnight.
“We thought we had the fire out. It was completely smothered and extinguished,” Wyatt said in an interview Monday.
