Springfield, OR.  Eugene Springfield Fire crews are battling a large fire involving multiple buildings at the intersection of Harbor Dr and Inland Way near Dorris Ranch Sunday afternoon.  Firefighters were hampered by a lack of hydrants in the area and utilized water tenders to bring water in to the scene.  At this time there are no reported injuries and the cause is under investigation.  Lane County Fire Defense Boad provided mutual aid water tenders from several area fire departments.  LCSO and OSP provided traffic control.  The public is asked to avoid the area of South 2nd Street in the area of Dorris Ranch.  The fire’s progress has been stopped, but crews will remain in the area for the rest of the afternoon.
