What could be a way to stop a huge fire started by coal?

It depends on how big the area and supply of coal. As one example, a trash fire caught a coal seam on fire in 1962 in Centralia Pennsylvania. The fire followed the seam underground, catching the entire coal mine on fire. The coal mine was under the entire town of Centralia, and the underground fire has basically closed the whole town because, to this day, the fire continues to burn. Bituminous Coal, a softer coal than Anthracite Coal, burns very hot. Bituminous coal has been used for home heating, for energy in mills and steel plants, and other industries. There is no easy way to stop a "huge fire" fed by coal. NOTE: Coal would not start a fire, but it would definitely feed a fire.
