The airport fire manager in charge is acutely aware of the implications of declaring a category 0 rffs (or any other lower category than that promulgated ) to atc and the impact on the business and will at the earliest opportunity restore the airfield category.
As mentioned earlier, any firefighters that were fighting the fire internally would probably need decontaminated due to the risk of composite fibres contaminating their fire kit and ba, this all takes time.
