Emergency crews worked tirelessly to prevent disaster, and by Monday, officials declared the immediate threat of a BLEVE had passed — thanks to a pressure-relieving crack and stabilized temperatures. But danger wasn’t fully gone, and residents still faced uncertainty, displacement, and chaos as they slept in parking lots or left barefoot. The company apologized for the disruption, noting MMA — used in plastics — posed no airborne threat, though the cause of the tank issue remains under investigation. No return date has been set.
