CSB Adds Nippon Dynawave Incident to List of Current Investigations

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.
