Other Business, Recycling / Waste Facility Danville, IL – Sprinkler system keeps machinery fire at recycling facility from spreading August 14, 2018 viking210 A machinery error started a fire in a recycling business Thursday night, firefighters say. They say they found smoke pouring from Mervis Recycling, located at 14 S. Henning Road in Danville, after 8:30 p.m. Finding the exact fire proved difficult because of the smoke. Crews say the call came in as a sprinkler system alarm. That system kept the fire from spreading. Firefighters remained on the scene until after midnight. The fire caused about $15,000 in damage. Firefighters say they can’t give an exact cause of the fire because the machinery responsible is too advanced.
