NIPSCO Defends Safety of Area Gas Lines after Massachusetts Explosions
Chicago Tribune Reported: As an investigation continues into the cause of a series of gas explosion in Massachusetts that killed one teenager, injured more than 20 others and burned dozens of homes last month, Highland Fire Chief William Timmer said he’s concerned, but not terrified, that the same disaster could happen here. “Am I concerned? Sure, I am. Do I tremble every night thinking about it? No,” Timmer said. While Timmer said these explosions rarely happen, he recalled a similar incident that occurred in the Glen Park area of Gary in 1969. Nine residents and five firefighters were injured, seven houses destroyed and dozens of others damaged and about $350,000 in property damage occurred as a result of a series of explosions and fires in Gary, according to the National Transportation Safety Board.
