I live in a nearby town to Cudahy, about 1 mile from the plant. The plant started on fire Sunday night July 5, around 10 pm. and still hasn't been completely put out. To add to the problems, the plant has ammonia and possibly other harmful chemicals in it near the fire. I just wanted to post a thank you to all the emergency personnel who put in their time and effort. At least 30 fire departments and numerous other emergency personnel were on the scene at some point. Over 8.5 million gallons of water used and climbing. After 24 hours of fighting this fire, I'm sure they are exhausted and ready to go home to their families, but continue to work on this situation. So again thanks to all involved and be safe.
