Thank God they got her put out, still looking for a pound of N560! A plant explosion probably wouldn't help my cause much.

They were supposed to selling the operation or shutting it down.

Now the sale price just halved!

They take containers with chemical waste from other manufactors for destruction. No fire in the factory.
