      Hello. This is your Mayor Christi Fraga, with an update regarding the fire at the Covanta-Waste-to-Energy Plant.

      Miami-Dade Fire Rescue staff are working tirelessly to put out the blaze, including performing a demolition now underway to create more access for firefighters to put out the fire. As the firefighters gain greater access to the center of the fire, we anticipate an increase in smoky conditions.

      Out of an abundance of caution, and based on Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) recommendations, Doral Glades Park and Doral Legacy Park are closed effective immediately until further notice. All outdoor programming and events at all other parks will be rescheduled to a later date. All Doral Building inspections scheduled for today will be rescheduled to Tuesday, February 21st.

      Miami-Dade County Public Schools have advised that they will be communicating directly to parents of schools in the affected area to provide dismissal procedures and further details.

      We remind you to continue avoiding the area and to remain indoors today. Those with preexisting respiratory and cardiac conditions, or elderly populations, younger children and expectant mothers, are recommended to take additional precautions. If you must go outdoors, we recommend you wearing a mask.

      Stay tuned for updates on these important developments through the city’s social media platforms and website for updates as we are in constant communication with Miami-Dade County . Visit the County’s website at www.miamidade.gov/wastefire. We continue working together to resolve this matter as quickly as possible for the safety of our community.

      El personal del Departamento de Bomberos de Miami-Dade está trabajando incansablemente para apagar el incendio, actualmente se realizara la demolición de un edificio en las instalaciones que para crear más acceso para que los bomberos puedan apaguen el incendio en completo. A medida que los bomberos obtengan un mayor acceso al centro del incendio, anticipamos un aumento en las condiciones de humo.

      Por precaución, y según las recomendaciones de la Agencia de Protección Ambiental (EPA), Doral Glades Park y Doral Legacy Park seran cerrados de inmediato hasta nuevo aviso. Toda la programación y los eventos al aire libre en todos los demás parques se reprogramarán para una fecha posterior. Todas las inspecciones del Departamento de construccion de Doral programadas para hoy se reprogramarán para el martes 21 de febrero.

      Las Escuelas Públicas del Condado de Miami-Dade han informado que se comunicarán directamente con los padres de las escuelas en el área afectada para brindarles los procedimientos de salida y otros detalles.

      Le recordamos que continúe evitando el área y permanezca adentro por lo tanto . Se recomienda que las personas con condiciomes respiratorias y cardíacas preexistentes, o las personas de tercera edad , los niños más pequeños y las mujeres embarazadas tomen precauciones adicionales. Si tienen que salir al aire libre, le recomendamos que use una máscarilla por precaucion.

      Manténgase atento a las actualizaciones sobre estos importantes desarrollos a través de las plataformas de redes sociales y el sitio web de la ciudad para obtener actualizaciones, ya que estamos en comunicación constante con el condado de Miami-Dade. Visite el sitio web del condado en www.miamidade.gov/wastefire diagonal wastefire.
