Fire officials are investigating a chemical fire at an industrial waste recycling business in North Dumfries Township.
Crews responded to a blaze at Panda Environmental on Earl Thompson Place shortly after 11-am.
The fire was burning itself out before the North Dumfries Township fire department arrived on scene, and they extinguished the remaining fire.
As a precaution, a neighbouring business was evacuated and St. Brigid school in Ayr was advised to keep kids indoors.
The Ministry of the Environment was also notified, although there’s no evidence of a spill.
No one was hurt.
