Arkema: We Believe the Safest Course Is to Allow the Other Containers to Degrade and Burn

‘We believe at this point is that the safest thing to do is to allow the other eight containers, the products and those to degrade and burn’

EXCERPT:

RENNARD: "We do have nine containers; these materials are stored in ice -- in these box containers, like you would see on -- over the road, storage containers. One of those containers has been involved, and the product in that container has started to degrade, that happened earlier this morning. We fully expect that the other eight containers will do the same thing. Water is still in our facility and preventing us from accessing the facility. And we believe at this point that the -- the safest thing to do is to allow the other eight containers, product in those, to degrade and burn."
