Arizona Firefighters Battle Blaze At Recycling Center

The winds initially hindered firefighters' efforts to get close to the four to 12-foot-high stacks of burning material.

Firefighters also set up a shuttle of water tenders to feed firefighting equipment.

A lack of fire hydrants in the area also forced crews to use a crash rescue truck.

It was used to pump a foam-and-water mixture on the blaze.

Officials say the fire appeared under control while firefighters worked to keep the other three sides contained.
