According to Surrey Fire Service acting assistant Chief Mark Seter, residents in the area called concerned about smoke caused by a pile construction materials burning at a site near James Hill Drive, south of 176 Street.
The plastic pipes emitted “a lot of smoke,” Seter said.
From a distance, the blaze appeared to be mostly out by 7:45 a.m., and Seter confirmed crews were “just mopping up,” as of 8 a.m.
There were no injuries reported, and cause of the fire is not yet determined, he added.
