OTAY MESA — Firefighting efforts continue to improve containment of a commercial structure fire that broke out 10 days ago at an energy storage facility in the Otay Mesa area, officials said Saturday.
"The evacuation order at Grid 0436 has been downgraded to a warning due to improved atmospheric conditions, and the evacuation warning for Grid 0437 has been removed,'' Cal Fire officials reported. Firefighters will remain actively engaged in the area, and will continue to monitor the fire closely for increased activity, Cal Fire officials said in an incident update.
