Don't worry that chain link fence is like a force field.

They just called for fire brigades from surrounding plants.

Is REG the old Uniroyal? Been a while since I was down that way and. I'm trying to figure out who's next to Rubicin.

I think LION Copolymer is the old Uniroyal. Not sure what REG used to be. Can't keep up with the chem plant name roulette.

Some operator dicking around on the OT instead of watching his gauges

Is this common practice for this plant. We have our own fire brigade and I've never known us to call for outside help.

Smaller plants won't necessarily have a fire brigade. So far BASF and Methanex have sent pumper trucks and Rubicon sent an ambulance. Had some injuries.
Sounded like a solvent pump caught fire. It's diesel burning.

I hope they fixed our pumper truck before they sent it over there. Last time we tried to use it the only purpose it served was a fire break. It wasn't doing any pumping.

REG used to be dynamic fuels. Its on the same property as Lions. Lions sold alot of their propery to dynamic and dynamic became REG last year.

Apparently its the biodiesel plant. They did have to tear down part of the old Uniroyal to build it. It's right on Rubicons fence.

Any idea how it will affect (if at all) Ethylene production in the area?

My brother works there, just got a facebook message saying he's fine but his plant blew up. That's all I know.
