Westlake LA

"City of Westlake is a great place to live, work, and play"

Hal McMillin, Mayor

If your grass gets too tall

he will cut it for you $3,000.00

My mother used to say they are "Nasty Nice"


Two explosions follow decades of fires, toxic leaks, injuries

at Westlake Chemical plants.


The chemical plant explosion at Westlake Chemical

forced several schools into lockdown

and sent a dark plume of smoke over Westlake


A review of federal and state records

reveals that Westlake has a long track record

of chemical spills, fires, air quality violations,

failed safety inspections, and accidents,


But it is not always the fault of the company.

They tell that the way to freeze homemade ice cream

is to turn a hose of butane down open air into a tub

and after a few minutes it will start filling up.

Then set the bucket of ice cream down in the liquid.

Of course is is boiling off like a fog

but the wind will carry it off.

What happens if they get one little spark?

And there is the case where the man was using a lighter

to see how full was the tank.

How can one make safety rules against stupid?

Westlake told regulators that an accident

could spew up to 660,000 pounds of toxic gas

across 25 miles --

A large share of the release would likely be chlorine gas,

a substance used as a weapon in World War I.
