PLYMOUTH, Wash. — A large explosion rocked a natural gas processing
plant on the Washington - Oregon border Monday, 1,000 people was evacuated and 4 injured in the frack gas explosion. The facility provides supplemental gas during times of high demand for a
4,000-mile pipeline stretching from the Canadian border to southern
Utah. Its two storage tanks for liquefied natural gas each have a
capacity of 1.2 billion cubic feet!
While a
massive explosion of 1.2 billion cubic feet of natural gas would be
catastrophic, the venting of that large a container of natural gas would
be equal to the annual greenhouse gas emissions from 1.3 million
passenger vehicles.
