“At approximately 2:30AM on Thursday, March 24th, 2022, Fire Chief Patrick Richards and the Belfast Fire and Ambulance Department responded to a structure fire at the Penobscot McCrum facility on the Belfast waterfront. Mutual aid has been provided by Belmont, Camden, Northport, Morrill, Liberty, Lincolnville, Searsmont, Searsport, and West Frankfort among others.

There have been no casualties or serious injuries reported at this time.

No ammonia or other chemical release has been reported at this time.

Waldo County Emergency Management Agency had temporarily advised that Belfast residents within a ¼ mile of Penobscot McCrum shelter in place but that has since been lifted.

The Route 1 Bridge had been closed temporarily but has now reopened.”
