Description:
On June 21, 2016 I was driving by Mc Cabe Road in El Centro driving into Heber I noticed that someone was burning hay bales and the air quality color was yellow and during the week that all fire permits were but on hold so I am wondering what happened here. ADMIN: DTSC Imperial CUPA has forwarded complaint to APCD. APCD RESPONSE: This day was designated as a No-Burn Day, however there was an accidental fire at Wilber Ellis which is located to the West of the I.V. Mall. The fire caught several hay stacks on fire and the County Fire Department and El Centro Fire Department attended. The Air District called a No Burn Day for the entire week as we were being impacted by smoke from the Potrero Fire up in the mountains. That is the same week there was that fire at the dismantler in Calexico.
