Federal atf investigators are on scene along with cal osha, county, and other local agencies. The plant is shut down until such time osha determines it is no longer hazardous. A quarter million gallons of flammable ethanol materials were consumed, the equivalent of 28 big greg gasoline tanker trucks. So far firefighters have used one and a half million gallons of Firefighting Foam and water mixture to suppress the mixture. The usually dry containment areas that surround the tanks to prevent toxic runoff are holding a lot of materials from the tanks as well as the water and Firefighting Foam. We believe there is no risk of fire but out of an abundance of caution we are keeping foam blankets on both of those containment pods to mitigate any risk of further ignition. The tanks that sit next to the burned ones are being vented into the atmosphere to let off pressure. The tank anti leaking valves were damaged in the fire. That system has been compromised because of the fire so they are vent
Forget, even now. 30 years later. I lived in San Francisco in 1989. And it would have been really helpful to know, like, how to check in with other people in my network, etc. Reporter if you do file quake, the nations first set nate wide quake warning will be eventually launched by governor gavin newsom and other officials thursday. It will be the same wireless system that issues amber alerts and nap called my shake that gives realtime information. Download the my shake up to get a warning when earthquake shaking is headed your way. The app will be available for download on your smart phone. If a quake is at least a magnitude 4. 5, people in the area that are likely to feel the shaking will get a warning. Earthquake, drop cover, hold on. Depending on how far you are from the ep wall so i dont fall over. Just a few seconds warning would be great. Some say even an alert after a quake is helpful. It will feel like a truck is driving by and we will not necessarily know it is an earthquake
That is quite funny that song was playing, because that is my goto karaoke song. So what a great start to the panel. So, as jennifer so kindly mentioned, i am very honored to be here as one of the newest Tony Blankley fellows and to moderate this conversation which is so important right now. Conservatives often disagree with, you know, the left and other political factions about the role of government in todays society, but i think that the one thing that we all do agree on is that the governments most important responsibility is protecting its citizens from all threats both foreign and domestic. We have seen a rise in antisemitism, and in radical islamic terror as well as domestic terror, and so it is only harder for the government over the years to take care of this very important responsibility, but luckily, we have two great panelists with us here today to help to break it down. First the cofounder of the Muslim Reform Movement, and she has dedicated her life to promoting peace and
Bullet. They say if those tanks had more ethanol in them this couldve been much worse. I was step out of the way so you can see we are. We are at the front gates of this facility and there are a lot of people out here assessing the scene. Right now they are in the cleanup process of this situation. Cal oshas is prohibiting use of the facility and nustar said last night all operations and shipments are stopped for now. We dont know when the facility will be up and running. An Assessment Team has been here for hours touring the facility but still no word on the cause. The contra costa Fire Protection district held another News Conference with an update from the scene. As we know, two tanks containing 252,000 gallons of ethanol in total were destroyed in the fire at Nustar Petroleum Storage Facility in crockett. The remainder of the ethanol is being held by berms around the tank sites but we are told the liquid is largely a mixer of water and foam at this point. The teams here plan to rem
Nowhere i heard the loudest pop right above me. He was on the 8th floor of the library when gunfire erupted. We looked at my desk and theres a hole in the glass. Theres glass all over the desk, me, the floor and my stuff. Glass is still falling from the shattered window. So an area is cordoned off and police are continuing to investigate what happened. The rotor a International Parking garage is riddled with bullet holes. When i got there three hours prior i had seen two guys just sitting on top of the parking structure which i thought was interesting. In the moments after the shooting san jose put out text alerts. Now they are sending out information about counseling. Were dealing with the new normal. It something we are trying to get our arms around. We want the students to be successful despite the interpretations. Hes shaken by what happened. The person shot a foot lower i would have been dead. Thats hard to overcome like emotionally. Im not coming back to the linery library becaus
