Fire

I am sorry to inform you that a fire broke out at 10 pm Thursday night. All residents in the near by area have been evacuated and should be able to return tommorrow pending on permission from the local authorities. Because of the diverse nature of materials in the plant, the cause of the fire is unknown but this facility does not carry dangerous chlorine gas and the fire is not spreading to other businesses. Dozens of people have been sent to the hospital with breathing problems but many have already been released. The North Carolina State Department of Enviroment and Natural Resources had not detected anything out of the ordinary in the air. We would like to thank the local police and fire departments for their quick and brave actions. If you have any questions you can call the EQIS toll-free hot line.
