The Pas Fire Department had a busy weekend fighting the massive blaze at The Pas landfill.
The page for the fire came in around quarter to 11 on Saturday night and the fire was spotted by someone at the hospital and upon arrival the fire was discovered to be burning in the house hold garbage section of the landfill.
The main fire was brought under control relatively quickly but it took fire crews about 27 hours to extinguish the fire fully.
It’s is not clear exactly how the fire started.
