“Given the travel distance, the chances of catching a fire in the early stages are slim, but we were able to save several green bins and a couple of exposures, said David Balding, Nipawin’s fire chief. “There were a couple farming implements as well we were able to look after.” Balding said while there were losses, the property owner expressed “considerable interest” in ensuring the green bins for grain were kept safe. “There was a lineup of about 11 of those in front of the barn. We were able to make certain they didn’t suffer extensive damage from the barn as it came down,” he said.
