When Avondale units arrived on scene there were still heavy smoke and fire conditions. Tanker 23, Rescue 23, and Engine 23-3 responded and helped with overhaul operations. Crews also checked for extension but were ordered to evacuate the addition section due to deteriorating conditions. Avondale units were available at 16:32 hours.
