It’s been less than a year since a different Deer Park gas leak led to people dying just a bit down the road from where this incident happened. It raises questions about how seriously all the facilities took that fatal incident. That should be a wake up call to any company to recheck their safety procedures and maintenance routine to prevent these kinds of accidents. That said, there will have to be more thorough investigations to find out what happened here and whether any steps could have prevented it.
