Kearny, NJ 631 Belleville Tpke. Dump/Mulch Pile fire

07/14/19 Kearny, NJ - Firefighters from Kearny and North Arlington spent their Sunday working at the dump. Several large mulch piles spontaneously ignited from the heat of the week. Firefighters had to deal with long hose lays of LDH and the heat of the summer to put water on the piles. They were able to darken down the fire with the help of construction equipment turning over the piles. A fire watch was left in place in case of a rekindle.
