MARINETTE -- Firefighting crews are still on the scene of a business fire in Marinette, Wisconsin.

The Marinette Fire Department reports that the initial call for the blaze came in at 4:01 Central Time on Monday morning.  All hands were called out to Beaver Creek Wood Products, located at 1729 Badger Parkway.

When officials arrived, the building was totally involved.  There were approximately 50 cords of wood inside the structure, which firefighters say is a total loss.

The cost estimates are not available at this time, and the cause is still being investigated, according to officials.

No injuries were reported, and the Marinette Fire Department called upon crews from Menominee to assist them in the fire.
