On April 29th, 2006 an explosion ripped through the propylene refrigeration unit of the Huntsman chemical plant in Port Arthur, TX. According to a Chemical Safety Board release, "The fire on April 29 forced the shutdown of the facility but caused no deaths or serious injuries; one responder was treated for heat stress and released."
Horrifying scene, but great bit of reporting photography.

These pictures portray this disaster perfectly! I was actually sent to respond on this project with the environmental company I work for and was wondering if you could email me the jpegs of these pics. Thanks!
