TembecA fire broke out on Wednesday at Tembec's Chetwynd pulp mill in British Columbia.



The fire began in the mill but quickly spread through the mill to the outside chip and log piles.



The fire has burned for a few days in the piles.



Crews using loaders have moved large chip and log piles away from the buildings to prevent any more fire loss.



At one point the fire spread into the nearby bush. The Ministry of Forests were called in to fight the brush fire and used two helicopters and one water bomber.
