The ACT State Emergency Service has provided lighting towers to assist firefighters tonight in continuing operations to extinguishing the fire.
CAFS tankers from ACT Fire & Rescue and the ACT Rural Fire Service continue to cover the pile with foam solution in the six metre high pile which is approximately 40 metres x 30 metres wide.
It is possible this fire could continue to burn for the next day or two.
Some fire crews will continue to stay at the Pialligo site through the night with other firefighters returning to the fire tomorrow.
