It looks like Lake Fubar is getting ready to dance again, and this time I think she really means business.

Expert: Over 200 million cubic feet of gas in area under giant Louisiana sinkhole (VIDEO)
11:40 a.m. Report Investigated
Earlier, a report was made to our office about an incident at the Dow Chemical Facility in Grand Bayou. Below are the findings (from the facility) specific to this report:
Their is a hanging string failure to Dow 3A; however, there are no issues to the packer sleeve or the casing. The cavern is shut in and all of the safety devices did work properly and the product was sent to the flare.

This was sent to us -
An internal piping problem inside a Dow Hydrocarbons underground storage cavern in Assumption Parish prompted automatic emergency systems to burn off propylene and shut the cavity.
Dow officials are working on plans to check the cavern — located about two miles away from an Assumption Parish sinkhole. The situation poses no immediate safety risk to the public. [says ... ummm...DOW]
UPDATE We have received reliable information that DNR didn't even know about this other cavern problem until they were told about it by a local resident. It looks like these company reports and agency reports about the vigilant monitoring and in-person, daily inspections are exaggerated or worse, not happening at all. E-mail that was sent to DNR - it was replied to, proving they read it - SOURCE PROTECTED:| From: XXXXXXX |

| Good morning, Mr. Chustz |
| I've received inside information that storage cavern Dow#3A is failing… my contact says that they are currently emptying it of polypropylene due to a possible casing failure. |
| If this is true, there needs to be a warning sent out to residents as well as our parish president and our director of emergency preparations. |
| In my estimation, this is an emergency procedure, not a “normal” procedure… if this is the norm, then the entire cavern storage industry needs to be re-examined. |
This is the same thing that Jefferson Island Storage & Hub has done for years to the people that live on Lake Peigneur. Loud noises would be heard & the residents would not know what was going on. A lot of company trucks would show up & the residents were not told a thing. Later when the press reported it the company would say, oh, it was nothing.
The Department of Natural Resources was contacted on July 12th by Dow for a permit to fix the problem. Why didn’t the DNR notify the Police Jury at the time? Why wasn’t Dow 5 an old EDC storage cavern that failed last year prior to the sinkhole wasn’t reported to the citizens of Bayou Corne but a hold was placed on doing any P&A?
