HAZMAT TASKFORCE SOUNDED ABOVE THE SECOND ALARM

November 26, 2007 At 0126 hours, Wagon, Hazmat, and Decon 501 responded on the Hazmat Taskforce to 14304 Jefferson Davis Highway, all the way on the other end of the county. Companies from Prince William and Fairfax counties and Quantico Marine Corps Base were operating on a second alarm fire in a pool store there. This was actually the second 2nd alarm of the evening for east-end companies. The first fire was reported at 2345 hours at the Meadows Farms Nursery, 14135 Jefferson Davis Highway. The second fire occurred about an hour later at Playtime Pools and Spas, 14304 Jefferson Davis Highway. Both buildings sustained extensive fire damage. Playtime Pools and Spas contained chlorine used in pools and low grade acids used as cleaners, so the Hazmat Taskforce was sounded for containment and decon of personnel. Units from the City of Manassas operated for over five hours in the Hazmat group before being released.  The Prince William County Fire Marshall's office is investigating the two fires as arson.
