Georgia officials issued the evacuation order on Saturday afternoon.
The Glynn County Board of Commissioners said in a Facebook post at 6:21 p.m. that an evacuation order has been issued for the area within a ½ mile radius of the Pinova plant in Brunswick, Georgia.
According to the board of commissioners, the Jacksonville Fire Department has arrived for support.
There was a fire at the plant on Saturday morning that was deemed contained at 9:55 a.m., but according to officials, it reignited by 3:10 p.m. Before an evacuation order was issued, officials originally established a shelter in place order.
The toxic spread goes by volume rather than in a lineal measurement. So as a rule of thumb, something twice the distance away will be eight times less toxic. Still, I don't know the details about how toxic this cloud is. Maybe best to set one's air conditioning on circulate, rather than importing new air for a while.
Thank you! I think it's because I live hour away. I appreciate the info. My sister lives closer than I do and hasn't said anything. That's why I questioned it.
