Yesterday the Chemical Safety Board published their annual better-late-than-never (hurricane season stared on June 1st) warning about the hazards that many chemical facilities face from the extreme weather conditions related to hurricane season.
The Board notes that:
““Extreme weather events continue to become more frequent and severe each year,” said CSB Chairperson Steve Owens. “Facilities that produce, use, store, or otherwise handle hazardous chemicals must take steps now to prepare for hurricanes and other extreme weather. The CSB’s materials provide important practical tools and recommendations that can help facilities mitigate their risk of severe damage and protect lives.””
The reminder includes links to a variety of CSB resources
about extreme weather events. The list is slightly different than the links
provided in last
year’s warning.
