Texas site catches fire again, prompts safety questions

摘要

A Texas industrial site Wednesday caught fire for the second time in a week, prompting questions about the safety of workers and the public in the area. Pasadena, Texas' Schuetz Container Systems Inc., where plastic tanks are cleaned of leftover chemicals, was unable to tell first responders what materials had caught fire, what was in the facility or even where the company's records were stored, Fire Marshal David Brannon said. "The folks that were exposed -- we didn't even know how to decontaminate them," he said. Late last week, a different explosion rocked the plant, injuring at least four people. Two firefighters were injured Wednesday from inhaling fumes and were treated and released without knowing what had injured them.
