They have a vested interest in getting the wreck cleared away, as they cannot use their longest runway until doing so, and it would cause a lot of problems if it were still there during the upcoming three day weekend. But they also need to finish the investigation as best they can.
It's possible that it could be cleared by Saturday morning, but absolutely no guarantee of that.
