We'll be seeing an uptick in unusual home and business gas explosions and I'm trying to locate specific ZT on the matter.  Below is a refresher for the many gas related news articles.

SOZT

Fault lines, when adjusting, do not just rip apart one day during a dramatic earthquake. They most often creep. Laying gas lines along or across a fault line is asking for an accident of this sort. Fault lines are also seldom so clearly delineated that one can go a mile in this or that direction and avoid their action. Where a slip-slide fault such as the San Andreas will often leave a clear line on the surface, this is only the surface action, not what occurs in the rock layers on either side which can fracture for a long way to either side during any movement. The gas company, or the age of the pipes, will be faulted but in truth the finger should be pointed in many directions. The public, who insist on living at such a scenic spot, is to blame. Officials, who zoned for housing are to blame. The public utility company, for allowing gas lines in the area, is to blame. But this will change nothing, while man continues to live on the San Andreas, even as it awakens. EOZT

SOZT

The danger from radon gas will not be increased as a result of the pole shift. Radon gas is emitted by rock containing uranium, which is degrading. In normal circumstances, where air can circulate, it is disbursed rapidly as is any methane created by decay of organic material. The danger from these gasses comes from confinement - being trapped in a mine, a basement, or beneath the permafrost. The dangers are well known. For methane, it is explosions. An accumulation of methane gas can be identified by the smell of rotten eggs, or as some have described it, dirty socks or cabbage soup. For radon gas the danger is lung cancer, from the continual exposure to the radioactive air. Radon gas is odorless, and cannot be detected except by specialized equipment not in the hands of the average person.

In that the pole shift, or the Earth changes preceding the pole shift, can fracture rock and release pockets of either gas, survivors should be cautious about huddling in bunkers. You are safer out in the open air, or in a trench you have dug that will allow the pole shift winds to pass over you, but nothing to fall on and crush you. The fact that both methane gas and radon gas can accumulate in the bunkers of the elite is one of the reasons we have stated that they have dug their own graves. EOZT

Anyone watching the news, for instance the news on the San Bruno explosion in a distribution line close to the San Andreas Fault line, knows that gas in any form is a danger. Oil and gas refineries explode when rigid piping cracks. Oil or gas wells explode when the ground around them moves. And the gas distribution lines running under cities are no exception. They likewise will explode. Gas lines, whether along the street or within a home, are rigid. In some cases automatic shutoff valves can limit the amount of gas available for an explosion by sensing a drop in pressure, but this is always after the fact. The explosion has already occurred. Utilizing gas on a planet prone to earthquakes was a mistake to begin with, but man never thinks of the consequences when striving for modern conveniences. We have advised turning off the gas at the street, though when the street explodes and your neighbor's homes are on fire you are not likely to escape the holocaust. A better alternative is to live in an area where gas is not available, as in your rural safe location where you will be doing a form of camping while gardening. A campfire at night, for cooking and washing and a bit of friendly light before bed. Nothing explosive. EOZT

SOZT Answer: It is no accident that the New Madrid fault lies under the Mississippi River near Memphis, as rivers form in lowlands created when land pulls apart, separating the rock fingers and weakening support for the land. Thus, the Ohio River bed also is an indication of where rock fingers will pull apart. Two adjustments in Kentucky, a day apart, are not an accident, but an indication of the speed at which the stretch zone is starting to adjust. Rail lines are frequently an early harbinger of such adjustments, as they run long distances, whereas structures within cities, such as tall buildings, take up relatively little space and have a small footprint. Our warning that imploding cities will be experienced, before the hour of the shift, are in this regard. Be warmed, it will not just be your rail lines and gas and water mains that will shatter and be pulled apart during the stretch. The foundations of your tall buildings will likewise be vulnerable.EOZT

Six labourers die in factory explosion

KARACHI: Six labourers lost their lives and four others were injured in a powerful explosion at an ice factory in New Karachi Industrial Area on Monday.

Two of the deceased victims were identified as Zulfiqar and Rafiq. The boiler and a compressor exploded at around 7:40am inside the factory located near Saba Cinema. A rickshaw and a minibus were damaged and stuck under the debris. A factory located near the explosion site was also partially damaged.

The workers usually stayed back after working in the factory overnight and most of them were asleep when the incident took place. “It was like a bomb blast,” said Muhammad Khalid, who works at the same factory and was injured in the explosion. “I was asleep and I had no idea what happened.”

Other workers from nearby factories and rescuers reached the site and helped retrieve the workers trapped in debris. The district administration also sent in machinery to remove the debris but gas leakage from the damaged pipelines hindered rescue efforts. After the factory roof collapsed, K-Electric suspended electricity supply to the area.

The bodies and the injured were later taken to the Abbasi Shaheed Hospital.

“First, the boiler exploded and then the compressor exploded with a loud bang damaging the entire factory,” said New Karachi Industrial Area police station SHO Tariq Rahim. “A case will be registered against the factory owner if negligence is found or if the victims’ families approach the police to register a case.” So far, the police have not registered a case.

The bomb disposal squad was also called at the site and the experts ruled out a possibility of the incident being a terrorist act. The factory management and the police investigators believed that the explosion occurred due to the explosion of the boiler and the compressor. “It was too powerful. It quickly collapsed the entire factory – its walls and a roof,” said Hamid, a factory manager. “Most of the casualties occurred due to the presence of iron material in the factory.”

The factory had been operating for over a decade and workers used to work in day and night shifts. The factory staff said that they did not have any idea how it happened. “This is the first time such an incident occurred” said Ismail, a factory worker.

The incident happened at Ustad Hotel in Karama on Tuesday morning.

AdTech Ad

One person was injured in an explosion caused when a gas pipeline burst at a restaurant in Karama early Tuesday morning.

Mohammed Hammad, Dubai Civil Defence spokesperson, said they received a call at around 7am on Tuesday that there was a blast at Ustad Hotel located at Al Maskan Building, at the corner of 47B and 12E streets in Karama.

Hammad said fire fighters from the Karama Civil Defence station rushed to the site of the accident on hearing about the accident.

The Dubai Police barricaded the road and evacuated residents in the vicinity.

The restaurant suffered major damages but no official estimate has yet been released yet. Nearby establishments sustained damages and the structural strength of the building is being assessed.

Glass shards and debris from the restaurant hit the petrol station opposite it, shattering its glass door and damaging its roof. Some vehicles parked on the street and at the petrol station were also damaged.

An official from Dubai Police told Khaleej Times that a full report will be released soon.

Eyewitness Rajesh Narriyan said he heard an explosion while he was about to leave for work. He said it was so loud and smoke covered the area within a few minutes. Alarm bells were heard and soon police cars, ambulances and civil defence patrol cars filled the area.

Ijaz Khan who lives in a nearby building, said he was so scared and thought the fire would spread to his apartment. He was relieved when he saw fire fighters and police arriving in a few minutes.

Some other residents told Khaleej Times that they woke up to a loud explosion. Anna who works at the nearby Lulu Supermarket and lives at Star Building said she heard a loud thud and was awakened by the sound, while Gerald initially thought the loud bang came from a construction site nearby.

Around midday, part of the internal road leading towards Shaikh Rashid Road was reopened to traffic but the area where the blast happened remained cordoned off while clean-up operations were being done.

The petrol station also remained close as well as the sweetshop and bakery located beside the restaurant. Retail outlets, a general trading shop and a boutique located in Al Maskan Building also remained close as of press time.

Officials: Braddock’s Edgar Thomson Steel Works Safely Evacuated After Explosions, Fire

BRADDOCK (KDKA) — Officials at Edgar Thomson Steel Works in Braddock are investigating after a pair of explosions and a fire Monday evening in an industrial building at the facility.

According to plant officials, the incident happened around 7:30 p.m. in the steelmaking area of the sprawling complex, located in the 1300-block of Braddock Avenue.

It is not clear what caused the fire, but officials are investigating.

Fire officials at the scene said there were two explosions at the building.

The plant has its own in-house fire crews, but security called for outside assistance from Braddock, nearby Rankin and the Forest Hills fire departments.

Officials with the plant say everyone was safely evacuated and has been accounted for. No injuries were reported.

KDKA-TV’s Ralph Iannotti talked to several people who live in the area. They said the explosions rattled both the neighborhood and their nerves.

“I was sitting on my porch, and then, just sitting there and then boom! It sounded like a cannon,” neighbor Gerry Chambers said. “Then, I heard another explosion a couple of minutes later.”

Another neighbor, Sanford Barnes, said, “I didn’t know what it was, but it was loud. I didn’t hear anything like that since I was in the Gulf, so it scared me. I heard the second explosion, then it was like, okay, this is crazy.”

Dramatic pictures reveal house ripped apart by gas explosion as firefighters fear somebody is still trapped inside

 

One man was dragged from the wreckage by heroic neighbours but firefighters are now due to enter the property after being told there could be another victim still trapped inside the rubble

The house was ripped apart by a gas explosion

Fire crews are set to carry out searches of a house ripped apart by a gas explosion after receiving information that there could be somebody inside.

One man was dragged from the wreckage by heroic neighbours but officers are now due to enter the property after being told there could be another victim.

The crews had to make the property safe and wait for the gas supply to be isolated before they could start any searches.

One man was dragged from the wreckage by heroic neighbours

Witnesses described hearing a loud bang at the back of the house before it partially collapsed in the Abbey Hey area of Manchester.

Thick clouds of smoke were seen coming from the back of the house while firefighters worked to extinguish the flames.

The team contained the fire to the ground floor of the house and it did not spread to adjoining properties.

A man, believed to be in his 40s, was pulled to safety by two brave neighbours


He told the Manchester Evening News: “We heard a big explosion. We ran out of the house with our coats and trainers on. Everyone was out in the street.

“I could see over the wall where the explosion happened. We could see a guy trying to clamber over the rubble.

“I jumped over the wall, I kicked the back door down. He kept screaming he couldn’t see anything. I managed to bring him out in the front.

“He managed to clamber out of his kitchen. The whole back of the house has come away.”

Michael added: “You don’t think, you just do what you have to do, I couldn’t leave him there. I didn’t have time to think about it.”

Nyesha Farag, 36, who lives two houses away, said: “The whole house just exploded, I can’t explain it but my whole bedroom shook. There was stuff thrown everywhere. It was like something out of a film set. The neighbours came running out, people were shouting and screaming.

“Two neighbours ran over and pulled a guy out covered head to toe in blood. His fingers were missing.”

GMFRS group manager Paul Etches, who is in charge of the incident, said the blast blew away a large part of the back of the house.

He said the explosion appears to have happened to the rear of the property but it is too early to speculate on whether it was caused by a cooker, boiler or another appliance.

He added: “Our Technical Response Unit is working to make the building safe as quickly as possible so firefighters can carry out a thorough search of the property.

“Abbey Hey Lane will remain closed for some time, which is affecting the 7, 168 and 169 bus routes.

“We’d like to thank residents for their patience while we work to resolve this incident.”

There are four fire engines, an aerial appliance and a number of specialist rescue units on the scene.

A dangerous building inspector is also at the scene because of the house collapse.

Residents return to their homes after lightning strike causes natural gas leak
June 15th 2016 http://www.wect.com/story/32230214/crews-respond-to-leland-communit...
BRUNSWICK COUNTY, NC (WECT) -
Brunswick County emergency crews were called to respond to the Grayson Park community after reports of lightning striking a natural gas line Wednesday afternoon.

According to officials, the incident was first reported just after 3 p.m. in the 4000 block of Rabbit Eye Run.

Fire crews evacuated some residents to the community's clubhouse and shutdown access to the subdivision due to the resulting gas leak.

Scott Garner, fire marshall for Brunswick County, said the lightning strike didn't spark a structure fire and a crew from Piedmont Natural Gas arrived on scene and stopped the leak.

Emergency crews are clearing the scene and residents are being allowed back into their homes.
