    I was out at one of our staging lots this afternoon and saw a huge black cloud of smoke.

    It kept getting bigger and the smoke rose up through a cloud.

    We went back over to the dealership and the fire was just behind it.

    Fire trucks and firefighters were coming from all over. We went a little farther to see what was on fire. It was a business that made fiberglass septic tanks.

    We first noticed the smoke around 2:15 PM and at 4 PM we can still hear sirens coming in. I haven't heard if there are any toxic chemicals involved. This is about 2-2 1/4 miles from where I live.

    Think you worded it correctly.
    It WAS a business that made fiberglass tanks.
    Hope there were no casualties and all are safe.
