I don't have any problem with paperwork issues. But I did spend part of my career handling rocket propellant, and we were pretty darned serious about how that was to be accomplished. No short cuts.
I viewed a video of the tanks in question, being sprayed to be kept cool. It struck me that whoever built that plant did so on the basis of "We will expect no problems." Did no one ask the question, "So, what do we do if a tank of MMA starts to polymerize and warm up?" No emergency deluge system. No quarantine spacing to keep it distant from tanks of other dangerous material. "Oh, we'll call the fire department and hope for the best." It is so rightly said, "Hope is not a plan."
Will take your word for it since you are more experienced and have more knowledge about the situation that I do not possess. I can only hope that your assessment of that situation is not the case. But you bring up some damn good questions that deserve answers.
I did hear something when all of this kicked off that there was a problem with the sprinkler system put into place for a situation like this. Starting to look like something bad just waiting to happen.
