Green Shift Responds to Calls at Siskin Steel & City's DRC Building

The Chattanooga Fire Department responded to Siskin Steel and Supply Company (1901 Riverfront Parkway) at 11:12 PM on 7/22/23 after a forklift flipped over. The battery was on fire, leaking acid. Firefighters put soda ash on the battery to neutralize the acid and contain the spill of approximately 40 gallons. CFD’s Special Division and multiple Green Shift companies responded to the scene. Workers were evacuated. There were no injuries. Several Green Shift crews were already on another call late Monday night at the Development Resource Center (1250 Market Street) where they extinguished a fire found in the walls. The center was closed for several days following the fire.
