        "content": "<p>The National Disaster Management Agency (BNPB) has commended the\nimmediate deployment of heavy equipment to assist in extinguishing a\nfire at the Malabar final processing site (TPA) in Cilacap Regency,\nCentral Java. Abdul Muhari, Head of the BNPB Data, Information and\nDisaster Communication Centre, stated on Wednesday that the heavy\nmachinery was deployed to dismantle the waste piles so that the\nextinguishing and cooling process could proceed effectively.\n\u201cFirefighting equipment along with heavy equipment assistance from the\nUPTD PSWB were deployed to the location to tackle the fire at the TPA in\nMalabar Village,\u201d he said. Abdul explained that the fire at the TPA in\nMalabar Village, Wanareja District, occurred on Tuesday afternoon around\n1:00 p.m. local time. \u201cThe waste pile containing flammable gases caused\nthe flames to spread rapidly, burning an area of approximately two\nhectares,\u201d he said. However, according to Abdul, thanks to integrated\nhandling and the dismantling of waste material using an excavator, the\nfire hotspots at the Malabar TPA have now been completely extinguished.\nIn handling the incident, the Cilacap Regency Regional Disaster\nManagement Agency (BPBD) directly coordinated with the Wanareja District\nLeadership Coordination Forum (Forkopimcam), the Majenang Fire Station\nPost, and the UPTD for Waste Management and the Banjar Region (PSWB).\nThe extinguishing operation was also assisted by a Majenang fire engine,\nwhich was supplied with a continuous water supply from a tanker fleet\nbelonging to the UPTD PKBD Majenang.<\/p>",
