The Palmer Explosion NTSB Investigation
By Pierre Maertin
n a sunny afternoon day of summer in a small town (they prefer calling themselves boroughs) of roughly seven thousand and 600 residents, a gas line explosion rocked the residential neighborhood of Millersville, in the state of Pennsylvania. The explosion completely pulverized one house and resulted in a debris field across five adjoining house lots. Said explosion also resulted in one fatality and three severe injuries. The fatalities could have been more severe if the gas utility, UGI, had not been on the scene and had not started an evacuation and containment effort of the leak. This remarkably similar incident to the R.M. Palmer factory explosion also called into action the National Transportation and Safety Board, a federal agency tasked with the authority to investigate a broad set of accidents that could impact public safety in a big way.THIS IS JUST A SUMMARY INTRO AND NOTICE TAB.
