Chemical Tank Crisis in California
Description
In Southern California, a chemical tank is under stress, with a crack potentially easing pressure and reducing explosion risk. Fifty thousand people are evacuated, and firefighters are on scene, dousing the tank with water. The governor declared a state of emergency, and a class-action lawsuit has been filed. The tank holds methyl methacrylate, used in plastic parts, and officials are monitoring temperature and setting up barriers to prevent waterway contamination.
