The VMA (important message to the public) that was previously issued is now lifted.
The work of laying down sand is ongoing and it is a task that will continue throughout the day until evening, says the rescue service's control operator.
It is the fourth time since 2018 that a fire has started at the same waste management facility, reports SVT News Småland.
