In this video of July 12th, 2012, a gas flare located next to a tank battery, (yes fire next to a battery of tanks containing flammable liquids) somehow fell over igniting the surrounding area. Flames shooting 100 feet in the air endanger families who live a mere 100+ feet from this facility. Those families, by the way, did not move next to the oil and gas; the oil and gas moved in next to them. Gardendale Texas will be a “hot spot” for this kind of negligence for as long as these operations are allowed to be so close to people.
