come on man, this is South Louisiana the lawyers arrive before the TV news crews.

(but in all serious you will see at least two ads targeting this event, even if zero injuries)

Not uncommon during an emergency at a plant. You can have all the drills you want but when something like this happens, nobody remembers which staging areas to go to. They just get the frick out of harm's way and don't really care about the "headcount". It's very hard to get your headcount exactly right with hundreds of people all over the plant. Hopefully this is the case here.

This will not evolve into any lawsuit type bullshite from the locals. The plant is surrounded by a lot of green space and no close neighbors.
Plus that whole deal with no toxic release

I am not. Know people on site. I am familiar with refining units though.

This is crazy. I have a few friends and former co-workers who work there, but they have all been accounted for.

Some people like to go above and beyond the call of duty. But I wouldn't expect that from any of you government workers.
