A massive chemical tank carrying nearly a million gallons of a corrosive liquid imploded on Tuesday at a paper mill in Washington, killing at least one worker and leaving nine others missing. The cause of the implosion was yet to be determined.
Nine others were wounded in the spill, with some said to have suffered severe injuries, the Associated Press reported, adding that rescue and recovery operations were underway at Nippon Dynawave Packaging Co. in Longview.
Some liquid remained in the collapsed tank, making it difficult for responders to reach victims, according to the Longview Fire Department.
“The tank remains unstable, creating hazardous conditions for emergency personnel,” the fire department said in a statement.
