TUSTIN, Calif.—Environmental clean-up crews wore protective gear work to remove hazardous materials in the wake of a fire that consumed a historic World War II era military blimp hangar Nov. 14.

The fire—which began Nov. 7 and continued to smolder for over a week—caught the attention of residents along a fence near Armstrong Street while a small crew from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency monitored air quality.
