its a tragedy and i suppose sign.of the times in Freeport. Real shame and testimony to what neglect can create.

I have to agree with Mitchell. We aren’t ready and there is no need to make this such a priority. It’s more monkey see, monkey do.
Same thing with only large bills at ATMs. We all know the cost of living is out of control but I still go too many places to buy something for $6.00, give them a $100 bill just to have them say sorry, can’t change that.

one has to question the quality or appropriateness of these remedial works. clearly not effective as they are always going back doing more remedial works.

2 to 3 barrels.. say 120 gallons or so max.. shouldn't be a big deal eh?

two comments.. we never know the full story, only the parts that support the narrative the 'gods' want to push. 2nd part, the negative consequences of big government.

this is what socialism and government ownership get you.. standby for more.

its refreshing to see a business stand up to these special interest socialists. if they worked with as much effort as they put into defying their employer, maybe we would be the best little country in the world.

we need to learn lessons from this.. its taxpayers money.. why did it happen? what firefighting capability was at the station? can this happen at other BPL sites? was the equipment and other stuff insured? we dont need BPL upping their request fir alms from $500m to $1.0bn.

its the same old story with things government related.. neglect forever, then speak about it like it all suddenly occurred, like national insurance for example.. all these small countries have perfected kicking hard issues down the road.. whatz next, the big govt pension obligation?

he who is without sin, cast the first stone. Mr. Smith made great contributions to this country and at this time we should be respectful of that rather than mud slinging.
