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.

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

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

At least seven killed in explosions at power plant, factory in two cities in eastern China

PUBLISHED : Wednesday, 09 November, 2016, 4:46pm
UPDATED : Wednesday, 09 November, 2016, 4:46pm

Two separate explosions ripped through two cities in eastern China on Tuesday, killing at least seven people and injuring a dozen others.

The first explosion occurred at about 9.40am at a thermal power plant at a village near Zibo in Shandong province.

Five people are confirmed to have died in the blast, the village government said in a post on social media. Another nine were injured, but are not in a critical condition, it said.

An ammonia tank at the power plant developed a leak prior to the blast, according to the China News Service.

About 55 tonnes of ammonia contaminated water leaked and flowed into drains at the power plant, it said.

No further pollution was caused to the surrounding environment as the incident was dealt with promptly, according to the article.

The second explosion occurred at an electromechanical factory at an industrial park in Tangshu township in Shucheng county in Anhui province.

Two people died in the blast, three were injured and 10 were still missing, the state-run news agency Xinhua reported.

The three hurt were not said to have life-threatening injuries, the report quoted the local authorities as saying.

Families gathered outside the factory on Wednesday, waiting anxiously for updates about their loved ones. Some passed out with grief, the report said.

Police, firefighters, medical teams and local officials were at the scene supporting the rescue operation.

Investigations into both explosions are continuing

Multiple people treated in gas explosion, fire at Payson apartment complex

Yesterday's gasoline pipeline explosion in Alabama (reported below by Starr DiGiacomo) happened only a few miles from the section of pipeline that ruptured in late September

Although blamed on a reckless construction accident, federal safety regulators rigorously enforce mandatory safeguards in the vicinity of fuel pipelines to prevent such incidents from occurring - particularly those pipelines with a recent catastrophic failure.

For the second time in two months, a pipeline that supplies gasoline to millions of people on the east coast was shut down, raising the specter of another round of gas shortages and price increases.

On Monday, around 3 p.m., Colonial Pipeline Co. said that a nine-person crew was working on its gasoline pipeline No. 1 in Shelby County when a trackhoe struck the pipeline, causing a fire. Colonial said the team was conducting "normal routine work" related to pipeline repairs from a rupture and spill that had occurred a few miles away in September.

Gasoline futures were surging almost 10 percent on Tuesday morning after Colonial Pipeline had to shut down part of its main pipeline following the explosion in Alabama that killed one person.

Alabama Gov. Robert Bentley today issued a state of emergency, warning that gasoline shortages may result.

"Shelby County, Alabama is located just below the hard rock of the Appalachian Mountains, and along the curve outlining this hard rock that stretches from Memphis through Alabama and on up along the East Coast. If the 5.6 quake in Oklahoma caused shaking along a 1,255 line from N Dakota to Houston that outlined hard rock just to the east of this line, then the Shelby County, Alabama gas line break was again showing that the rock strata surrounding the New Madrid Fault line is in the process of shifting. First soft rock shifts, then soft rock rips, then hard rock rips – that is the process during the New Madrid adjustments.  

"The State of Emergency declared by a number of governors along the broken gasoline line was to allow them to bypass regulations so that shippers and truckers could bring in enough gas. We have warned that when the New Madrid rips, tearing the bridges and pipelines crossing the Mississippi, that the entire heavily populated East Coast of the US will be similarly distressed. These governors were warned when FEMA moved the training for their civilian corps from June 2018 to June 2016 and cited it in Atlanta, the heart of the New Madrid impact zone. They get regular updates from FEMA. But civilians, harboring a sense of unease, will not get a warning until disasters begin to strike in earnest."

7 people severely burned after Shelby County gas line explosion

October 31, 2016 at 3:25 PM

Fire departments from across the Birmingham area responded to a gas line explosion in Shelby County that severely injured several people this afternoon. 

According to public safety radio reports, seven people were severely burned. A UAB Hospital spokesman this afternoon confirmed three patients were already at UAB, three more were coming by ambulance, and one more was coming by air.

And, with a severe drought caused by weeks without rain, much of central Alabama has been plagued by multiple wildfires, forcing crews to try and keep the blaze from spreading across the landscape.

Coleen Vansant, a spokeswoman with the Alabama Forestry Commission, said crews were attempting to build a 75-foot-long earthen dam to contain burning fuel, which will be allowed to burn itself out.

Two wildfires caused by the explosion burned 31 acres of land, she said.

Homes around the blast scene were evacuated, and Capt. Jeff Hartley of the Shelby County Sheriff's Office said it wasn't clear when people might be able to return home.

"There's a large plume of smoke; there's a large fire. We're not sure exactly how it started or what caused it," he said.

Eight or nine subcontractors were working on the Colonial gas pipeline when it exploded around 3 p.m., Shelby County sheriff's Maj. Ken Burchfield confirmed. Colonial has now shut down both pipelines running through the area.

"The fire will not be out any time soon," Burchfield added.

Shelby County Sheriff John Samaniego said the Colonial subcontractors were trying to flush one of the lines. As they began to dig, that is when the explosion happened.

In addition to the injured victims, Samaniego said there's a possibility that two workers are still missing. The heat from the blaze, he said, is hindering the search for them.

The sheriff said the flames are still reaching about 50 feet in the air.

Colonial has now shut down both pipelines running through the area. This explosion is about five miles west from a recent Colonial Pipeline gasoline leak.

The Georgia-based company said in a brief statement Monday evening that its top priorities are the health and safety of its work crews at the scene and protecting the public.

Flights in the area have been restricted, Gregory Robinson of the state emergency management agency announced Monday night. Only relief aircraft are authorized in the airspace.

Blast at Total's Gonfreville refinery injures five

by Reuters
Monday, 24 October 2016 18:07 GMT

PARIS, Oct 24 (Reuters) - French oil and gas company Total said on Monday that a gas leak at its 247,000 barrels-per-day Gonfreville refinery in Normandy had caused an explosion that injured five workers.

The blast in northern France occurred during a scheduled maintenance work on a gas compressor, Total said, adding that emergency services were on site to contain the gas leak and fire.

"There is no risk of it spreading within or outside the site," Total said in a statement.

A union official at the site told Reuters that it was still unclear what had sparked the explosion.

"There were some workers in the vicinity and five of them were hit by the detonation," a union official said, adding that units feeding to the pipe were being shut down while firefighters try to contain the flames.

A total of 16 people were injured, three of whom died, while 13 needed medical care. Four were hospitalized, and outpatient care was provided to nine others,” TASS news agency was told by the local branch of Russia’s Emergencies and Disaster Response service.

Earlier reports suggested 16 people were injured and three had died.

Photos and videos of the devastated apartment block in Ryazan, a city some 200 kilometers southeast of Moscow, emerged early Sunday, with the incident taking place late at night.

Police say they are investigating the circumstances of the blast, which is thought to be a likely household gas explosion.

Three of the 16 people injured were found in their flats, the Russian Emergencies Ministry said, adding that a child was among the injured.
