Yesterday, the Chemical Safety Board updated their Current Investigations page, adding the ‘Nippon Dynawave Packaging Company Fatal Tank Collapse’ investigation. On May 27th, the CSB announced sending a team of investigators to look into the “the rupture and implosion of a large tank containing white liquor, a corrosive chemical solution used in paper and pulp processing” at the Longview, WA facility; 11 workers were killed and another 7 were seriously injured in the incident.
Based upon past incidents, we will probably see an investigation update from the CSB in the next week or so.
