United 328, a Boeing 777-200, suffered a failure of the #2 engine during takeoff on Denver's runway 25, the crew continued the takeoff, declared emergency, dumped fuel, and returned to the airport. Ejected debris and/or fuel ignited some patches of grass around the runway which needed to be extinguished by ARFF, who also adopted standby positions to meet the returning aircraft on runway 16R. The aircraft taxiied to the gate.

The feeds at Denver are extensive and very high quality, including lots of ARFF comms, so after removing dead air, here are 30+ minutes of related RT, split into two files.
