Shits always leaking around there. I go to a bunch of plants right in the area (including Westlake), and I make sure not to read the news before I go.

You can hear alarms going off all day around there, and nobody has any idea where it is coming from

Per WAFB

quote:

The leak caused the unit to release a small amount of hydrochloric acid gas, which created a visible haze north of the plant across LA Highway 73.


quote:

Out of an abundance of caution, the plant declared a Level-2 Community Awareness and Emergency Response (CAER) incident and requested the temporary closure of Highway 73.

Psssh, where I used to work we were only allowed to offload sulfuric in the middle of the night so no one could report the massive cloud we made.
