The fire at the Kactus Life III Project (Maule) undoubtedly marked an extraordinary and challenging moment for CCFD. The scale and intensity of this incident, involving four five-story buildings, is a testament to the dedication, skill, and bravery of CCFD’s personnel. More than 220 suppression and support personnel worked this fire that took four days to extinguish fully. It's not every day that a fire of such magnitude occurs, and it rightly garnered international news coverage. Fire Chief John Steinbeck
