What About the Volcano? We are in a Lahar Zone. Not all lahars are large scale events.

Our Volcano Has a Warning System

Where is the Accidental Chemical Release Warning System? There isn’t one available Never will be

If there is an Accidental Chemical Release, And the E P A says there almost certainly will be one How will we send out the warning to evacuate or die

This is an oil fire. Emergency workers know exactly what to do for an oil fire

This Chemical leak or fire could be one of several dozen chemicals If you don’t know what chemical it is or which protocol to use, you don’t do anything. Too dangerous.

Nobody deals with a chemical fire. You evacuate and get the hell out.

This recent Chemical fire was in Detroit Thousand of people were evacuated from homes and businesses It took days to return Black toxic ash rained down upon the city Residents where told not to touch it, even though it was everywhere

This recent Chemical fire was in Detroit No resident or business got paid damages Mysterious illnesses are just starting Other accidental chemical releases have resulted in deaths. Do we want this for Sumner?
