California faces leak or explosion prompts evacuations
Authorities in Orange County, California, have ordered the evacuation of 40,000 people due to the risk of a leak or explosion of a tank containing a toxic chemical. The tank faces two potential hazards: a leak of between 6,000 and 7,000 gallons of chemicals, or a thermal reaction that could cause it to explode and affect nearby tanks. Up to now, no gas leak or gas cloud has been recorded in the area.
