Sounds like a fence surrounding a dumpster pushed up against the side of the building on three sides to me. Is it a threat? Fire in a container against a concrete wall? Under the intake air opening at the combustible dust factory? Death penalty law for burning any garbage, even by accident. Seriously, what can be damaged, what exposure threat is there to neighboring properties, how would you detect it and at what cost sans roof, any rules requiring it (I know, that's the question you're asking Tony), can you moc=ve the actual hazard a few feet away, etc.?
