[QUOTE="Caustic Burno, post: 1010952, member: 694"] You got that right as that is what caused the worst industrial accident in US history. There are several tank's that have been destroyed as well without knowing where the problem started, it is just guessing at what started the chain of event's. It has been stated there was propane, ammonia,and fertilizer on site all three have the potential to start the chain. I seriously doubt they had a water deluge system on their NH3(ammonia) or propane storage facility. I didn't see any tank retaining firewall's around the tank's from the pic's. The bad part here is some poor smuck can be charged with criminal and civil penalities if the site wasn't OSHA 1910 compliant. Some of these people involved with the site operation, problem's are just starting. [/QUOTE]
