Several days of very hot weather, on top of a faulty relief valve, caused gas to vent into the atmosphere. Large diameter hose were laid and multiple master streams from T141, T541 and ET241 were used to cool these massive 70,000 gallon natural gas/propane storage tanks.  Great job was done by all.

Vernon Command Car 41 was confronted by limited space for equipment and water several hundred feet away from the actual fire building. Crews working for about an hour, brought the fire under control. The entire building was uninhabitable. Crews returned again in the early morning hours of July 31 to extinguish hot embers which had reignited.
