Fire crews are battling a fire at the site of a landfill near Huntly in the Waikato.
Fire and Emergency was called around 5.30am to the fire on Rotowaro Rd in Pukemiro, northern shift manager Paul Radden said.
The Herald understands the fire is at the address of the Puke Coal landfill, though Radden did not confirm if the fire was in the landfill itself.
Just before 8am there were two fire trucks and two water tankers in attendance, Radden said.
