A debris fire that occurred in the area of the Carolina Wood Pellet Plant and Archery Barn off Riverside Drive in Otto Wednesday afternoon, produced intense heat and heavy smoke, but no structures were damaged, thanks to the efforts of firefighters and an assist from the wind.
Passing highway motorists likely spotted the wafting gray smoke from the blaze, which could be seen from miles away along Georgia Road.
The fire was reported just before 3 p.m. and crews remained on scene until 9:30 p.m., according to Otto Fire Department rescue captain Barry Cabe. The blaze
burned slabs and other construction material that had been
piled up around the property, but the buildings were spared.
