Donald Robinson doesn’t want to hear the words “fire” and “Nike Lane” come from his scanner again.  The Catawba fire chief said it was the second forest fire they have had there in less than a week and they aren’t taking any chances with a third.

 Catawba and Bandys Crossroad firefighters spent Wednesday afternoon trudging a 3-foot trench around the location.  If another fire does ignite, the trench is there to keep it from spreading.
