It took me a while to find it. I was literally just in that area a few months ago for the bird festival. It's close to Maumee Bay. I hope it doesn't affect the migrating birds in the area.

Residents deserve to know what was in that tank, what air monitoring shows and how officials will determine it’s safe to return. Publish the evidence behind the all-clear—and investigate what caused the explosion.
