North Whatcom Fire and Rescue (NWFR) Division Chief Shaun Ward told Whatcom News that NWFR along with Lynden Fire, Whatcom County Fire District 7 (WCFD7) and Bellingham Fire Department personnel arrived to find a 2-story shop structure fully involved. Inside the building were multiple pressurized tanks of propane off-gassing.
