TPC

Or old Neches Butane as it was called for years and years.

We all know it is our Bread and Butter in this area. We all know that it is risky working at these plants\refineries.

But it is a Catch 22 situation. It pays many of you a comfortable living. The taxes received pay for fire department, law enforcement, and keeps our schools open. If it were for the kids of these plant workers, I wouldn't have had kids to teach. I probably would have wound up in the Dallas. Or Northeast Texas teaching.

That said, it is scary when 3 cities, 50,000 people have been evacuated due to a plant explosion.

Questions arise.

What steps will be taken to avoid this occurring again? Can anything really be done?

Will TPC reopen ever again?

Will PNG Schools be able to open anytime soon? Or will classes being moved ?

With all the claims from damage, will TPC their insurance provider wind up going bankrupt?

Lots of questions, lots of concerns this morning.
