And a reminder that engineered works continue to be risky business.
RE: CT Power Plant explosion
We will see what the investigation reveals. At this point they have just released the names of those who died. The current story is that they were purging the gas lines when the expolsion occurred. The site was difficult to access (I've been there), but not as secure as some water treatment facilities that I have been to. So far, terrorism has been ruled out. I would suspect that a relaxed attitude that comes with working on a Sunday may be a contibuting factor. But at this point, any suspected cause would be pure speculation.
