A fire that broke out at about midnight on 6 October at a waste recycling factory in Daesan-eup, Seosan, South Chungcheong Province, was fully extinguished after 17 hours and 40 minutes, according to Yonhap. Seoul Shinmun also reported that the blaze was out after the same period. Fire authorities had issued a level 1 response shortly after the fire began. [ 1 , 3 , 4 ]
Yonhap reported that fire authorities acted on a report from a foreign worker who said the factory was on fire, and at 01:09 issued a level 1 response, committing 40 pieces of equipment and 179 personnel to the effort. No workers were inside the factory when the fire started and there were no casualties. The factory processes plastic and scrap metal into solid fuel, and about 1,000 tonnes of combustible material, including scrap iron and non-ferrous metal, were stacked at the site. [ 1 ]
At 03:32, Seosan City sent a disaster safety message to nearby residents, telling them that large amounts of smoke were being produced and asking them to refrain from going out and to take care, Yonhap reported. [ 1 ]
Fire authorities said they will investigate the exact cause of the fire and the scale of the damage once the fire has been fully put out. Neither Yonhap nor Newsis reported a cause or a damage estimate, and no such figures have been given. Newsis reported the fire and the level 1 response in its headline and feed summary, while the article text available from it dealt with an unrelated Supreme Court audit story. [ 1 ]
