The smoldering fires at the large McCoy Grain Terminal in North Whitman County are out.
Whitman County Fire District 7 Volunteers extinguished the smoldering grain in the facility on Sunday afternoon. They were called to the terminal on Saturday afternoon. The Volunteers had to chase multiple locations of smoldering grain that ended up in conveyors and bins. District 7 chief Bill Tensfeld says the terminal will likely be down for the rest of harvest. The McCoy Grain Terminal is one of the largest grant handling facilities in the region.
