        But who needs the EPA, right? What does a possible 1,000,000 deaths mean to Trump?

        And the administration wants to remove regulations. We don't need OSHA, FDA, or predatory banking protection.

        Go look at Process Safety Management law. Then investigate how they were following that law. Good bet they did not follow nor do a PHA

        Companies are not even obligated to inform neighboring residents of their use of hazardous chemicals.

        Arkema wont tell public chemicals involved, didn't neutralize it when they could. It exploded, and may continue, Arkema jeopardized public.

        Does #Arkema make/use these chemicals in Europe? If so, what safety regulations are followed? Bet more stringent than #TX. If not, why not?

        2/3 Perhaps too risky? And why does EPA and/or TX require chemical neutralization in event of foreseeable event like #Harvey? Seems that

        #Arkema is using TX like a third world country cutting costs by skimping on safety. They know TX hurricane-prone, attitude is let it burn.
