Puccetti NARRATIVE: October 2, 2013 I responded emergent from my residence to the report of a structure fire at 8906 Frontier Street in Firestone Colorado. While in route to the incident I advised command of the potential hazards that were identified during the fire code inspection that had been completed on September 26, 2013. The hazard was large amounts of magnesium storage in the building outside of the approved storage containers. On arrival I checked in with the Incident Commander, Battalion Chief Mike Reasoner. I was assigned as the Staging Officer for the duration of the incident. Once the fire was extinguished I was replaced by Lieutenant Jim Klug as the Staging Officer. The fire investigation was started at 8:00 am. The weather at the time of the fire was 44F, Calm, 83% Humidity as reported by Weather Underground. See report dated October 10, 2013. A FFFPD Consent to Search form was completed and signed by Mr. Alan W, Totten - General Manager who was authorized to sign the form by PCC-AFT, Inc. Interviews were completed with the following individuals that were involved with the fire and individuals that had fought the fire with fire extinguishers before the fire department arrival.

The fire scene and surrounding areas damaged by smoke and water were photographed using the FFFPD NIKON D3100 Camera. 189 photographs were taken on October 2, 2013. The electrical power to the entire building was secured by United Power during firefighting operations. The fire sprinkler system and fire alarm system were secured after firefighting operations were completed. All remaining utilizes were secured by firefighting crews during the firefighting operations. No further fire investigations were completed until the integrity of the building could be evaluated by a structural engineer. The building was secured and maintained by Thixoforming staff. October 3, 2013 A meeting was held with SafeBuilt of Colorado Mr. Barry Kramer, Mr. Alan Totten and me regarding the structural integrity of the building and roof involved in the fire. Mr. Luis Estenssoro was hired by Thixoforming General Manager Alan Totten to evaluate the building for structural stability. Better -Way Electric was hired to evaluate the electrical that was damaged during the fire. Freedom Fire Protection and Fire Call Electrical & Fire were hired to evaluate the fire sprinkler system and fire alarm systems that was damaged during the fire.

Source Gas Energy Services David Pierson, 1-970-412-7339. The gas line in the undamaged area of the building was evaluated and restored. The gas lines in the fire area were secured out -of -service. Mr. Alan Totten was advised that the fire investigation could not be completed without the approval of Factory Mutual Insurance Company the insurance agency for Thixoforming, LLC. Limited manufacturing was allowed to resume in the undamaged area of the building once all safety systems and utilities were checked and found to be operational and not damaged by the fire. The fire scene and surrounding areas damaged by smoke and water were photographed using the FFFPD NIKON D3100 Camera. 36 photographs were taken on October 3, 2013. Fire Evidence Tags #1 and #2 were left in -place on Machine #3 until we had the equipment released by Factory Mutual Insurance Company. The building was secured and maintained by Thixoforming staff. October 4, 2013 A follow-up walk-through was completed with Mr. Totten to ensure everything was operating properly. October 9, 2013 All flammable metals (magnesium) are stored correctly. The Fire Code Violation Report dated September 26, 2013 was updated. We received a letter dated October 9, 2013 from Factory Mutual Insurance Company Mr. David W. Hess indicating that Factory Mutual Insurance Company will not be hiring an independent fire investigator to assist in the fire investigation. The letter did release Machine #3 for the fire investigation to be completed. The following individuals were assembled to reenact the operations that occurred during the start-up operations on the morning of October 2, 2013. Mr. Alan Totten, General Manager Mr. Dan Wright, On -duty Shift Foreman Mr. Louis E. Herrera, Machine Operator, Machine #3 Injection Mold Process Thixoforming, LLC produces magnesium parts to outside venders for manufacturing and assembly. Magnesium pellets are received in large bags known as "Super Sacks" weighing 1500 lbs. These "Super Sacks" are stored outside away from the building in large metal cargo containers. The magnesium materials stored in the "Super Sacks" are transferred by fork lift into large covered hoppers for the injection molding process. The magnesium is transferred from the hoppers into the "barrel" of the injection machine where it is heated to 1100F to a semi -liquid state. The "barrel" is moved forward by a "robot" on the machine where the "barrel" and "mold" come together to form the "part". The "part" is cooled by circulating transfer oil in the mold. The part is cooled and removed from the machine to be trimmed and cleaned. Mr. Herrera reported to work at 5:30 am and began the startup process on the three injection molding machines. Two machines were located in the center of the building and the large machine was located in the south end of the building. The start-up process includes bringing the temperature up to 1100F and running from 8-10 test parts with the operator present. This was completed by Mr. Herrera on Machine #3 first in the morning of October 2, 2013. The test parts were completed without incident and Mr. Herrera went to start-up the two other machines in the center of the building. When Mr. Herrera returned to check Machine #3 he discovered the fire. Mr. Herrera indicated that the fire was on the north side of Machine #3 and was coming from under the machine. As stated by Mr. Herrera, Mr. Wright and Mr. `Totten on several occasions there will be a "burping" of molten magnesium from Machine #3 when the "barrel" and "mold" come together. This process allows the molten magnesium to splash over the entire mold, robot, electrical lines and oil transfer lines. Mr. Herrera, Mr. Wright, Mr. Macvia and Ms. Rivera all attempted to fight -the -fire using eight to ten 20 lb. Class "D" fire extinguishers and 20 lb. ABC fire extinguishers. The fire extinguishers were not effective in extinguishing the fire. All occupants evacuated the building at that time. Mr. Alan. Totten called 911 to report the fire. October 24, 2013 The fire sprinkler system was cleaned in the undamaged area and all ceiling and inside of the building was cleaned. The exterior sign with the address was added to the entrance off Frontier Street. The Fire Code Violation Report dated September 26, 2013 was updated. ORIGIN AND CAUSE INVESTIGATION: October 9, 2013 The Origin and Cause fire investigation was started with the following personnel present: Mr. Alan Totten Mr. John E. Rastorfer The "Area of Origin" was identified by evaluating the interview information with Mr. Herrera, the fire damaged to Machine #3 and the fire movement and intensity patterns on Machine #3, the damage to the "robot" on Machine #3 and the fire movement and intensity patterns on the walls and ceiling. The "Area of Origin" was identified to be on the north side of Machine #3 at 3 feet above the floor. The fire sprinkler system did activate once ceiling temperatures reach 155F. This did not control the fire because the fire sprinkler heads that activated were not directly over Machine #3. The fire sprinkler system over Machine #3 had been disconnected at the direction of Factory Mutual Insurance Company as stated by Mr. Phil Morrow (Retired Maintenance Supervisor). The concern was if there was a fire in Machine #3 that involved magnesium the water from the fire sprinklers would intensify the fire by the reaction of the water and magnesium. The "robot" and "barrel" were examined by Mr. Totten and found to be without mechanical failure before the fire. The seals and connections point were normal on the "robot" and "barrel" as stated by Mr. Totten. There was very limited amount of magnesium in the "mold" area and movement tracks in Machine #3 that indicated the fire did not involve large amounts of magnesium. During firefighting operations crews reported a very little reaction when water was applied the active fire area. The area on the north side of Machine #3 was examined and photographed. The guards that are normally in place during operations had been removed for the cleanup of the fire area. The splash guard for the "robot" was still in place, and had a large amount of splashed magnesium on the underside of the guard. The movement rails on Machine #3 were examined and found to be normal and not effected by the fire. Next the electrical wiring for Machine #3 were examined and found to be mostly just discolored and the protective covering damaged by the fire. The area most damaged by the fire was at the floor level and above at the oil transfer lines, air lines and control motors. Examination of the braided oil transfer lines found one line to be heavily damaged before the fire by the door on Machine #3 being closed and pinching the oil transfer line. Further examination of this oil transfer line found four holes burned in the line by molten magnesium. This damaged was photographed and documented. The pump that controls the oil transfer fluids would have continued to operate until the power was shut off by Mr. Herrera when he discovered the fire. This would have provided the fuel needed to intensify the fire and would explain why the fire was not controlled by the use of Class "D" fire extinguishers. The transfer oil used by Thixoforming in Machine #3 is produced by Exxon Mobile and is Mobil Therm 603 and has a flash point of 381F. The NFPA hazard ID for this oil is Flammability of 1. Fire Movement and Intensity Patterns Fire movement was identified by observing the intensity patterns that were formed during the fire and during firefighting operations on the north wall, ceiling and parts on Machine #3. The fire movement patterns indicated the fire started on the north side of Machine #3 and moved up from under the machine to the injection molding area and then intensified to the top of Machine #3 and then to the east towards the open roll -up door on the east side of the building. The fire grew in size because both the east and west roll -up doors were open which provided plenty of oxygen and air movement for the fire to grow rapidly. The following fire patterns were observed in the fire area. Hot gas layer, charring, consumption of combustibles, change in colors, structural movement and collapse, changes in character, fire movement and intensity, oxidation, melting of materials, temperature determination, thermal expansion, smoke and soot deposits, clean burn areas, calcination, loss of mass, heat shadowing, protected areas, low burn, "V" and "U" burn patterns, irregular bum patterns, fuel gas, material distortion, and neutral plane indicators. There was a large "U" pattern inside the east wall of Machine #3 just above the oil transfer line that was damaged by molten magnesium and the pinching of the oil transfer line. This pattern was created by the burning transfer oil from the damaged oil transfer line. The "Point of Origin" was found to be the damaged oil transfer line where the transfer line was damaged by the molten magnesium. Hypothesis Machine #3 was started and operated normally on the morning of October 2, 2013 by Mr. Herrera. During unattended operations Machine #3 experienced a "burp" of molten magnesium that was observed on the "robot" guard and found on the damaged oil transfer line on the north side of machine #3. The molten magnesium is at 1100F and burned through the oil transfer line braiding and jacket which ignited the transfer oil. The burning transfer oil was continually pumped out through the damaged oil transfer line on to the east door of Machine #3 which spread the fire and allowed the fire to grow without interruption until the power was shut off by Mr. Herrera. Once the power was shut off the fire only involved combustible materials and small parts of magnesium, which were extinguished by firefighting crews using large hose streams and Class "D" fire extinguishers.

Normally you (or someone in your office) would receive these via inner -county mail but we have switched our process to electronic so they are attached to this email. Since these have a requirement of being heard within 6 months of the date of receipt, they must be heard by May 13th. Would you be able to schedule these in early May? That would hopefully be late enough for the lobby to be opened back up so I can get in without having to get access from you and yet would still meet the statutory requirement. Would you also be able to schedule them in the order they are attached? They are quite complicated and this order will assist with the explanation. Thanks for your help and let me know if you have any questions or concerns. Hope you are well!
