They were called to a smell of smoke at 3.47am. The first crew was on site by 3.55am. They have had 14 appliances dealing with the fire on The Esplanade, close to Lennox Street. Crews have been working in extremely difficult conditions. Although part of the building was derelict 30 people have been evacuated from adjoining flats. The Fire Service is working in partnership with a number of agencies, including Arun District Council, and have support from Hampshire Fire & Rescue Service, West Sussex County Council's Resilience and Emergencies Team and their own Technical Rescue Unit. Lead officer at the scene Adrian Murphy said: "This incident has taken place in the midst of a major storm and it was difficult to stand when we arrived on the seafront. Our crews have worked hard for the last few hours with support from a number of other agencies. Our key priority now is to work with the displaced residents to get them safely home as soon as possible." PR 12651 Large fire on Lancing Industrial Estate Firefighters remain at the scene of a large fire that broke out at a waste recycling centre in Lancing overnight. The fire is under control and there are no reported injuries. The first of more than twenty 999 calls to the Rabbit Waste Management building in Chartwell Rd was received at 1:15am with fire crews from Lancing and Shoreham initially mobilised. The fire was in a large building measuring 85m x 35m and containing more than 500 tonnes of wood chippings used for recycling. The fire was attacked using ground monitors and jets with firefighters working hard to prevent the fire spreading to the rest of the building and plant room. At its height the incident involved 10 fire engines, an Aerial Ladder Platform, two Bulk Water Carriers, and a High Volume Pump unit with West Sussex crews supported by colleagues from East Sussex Fire & Rescue Service. The smoke from the fire is not believed to be toxic. The incident has now been scaled down but is expected to be protracted with fire crews at the scene for most of the day.
