• Preparing Your Workplace for Summer's Extreme Weather Hazards (ehsleaders.org) — Crosby is highlighted as a national case study after the 2017 Arkema chemical fire, showing how flooding and power loss during hurricanes can trigger dangerous chemical releases and neighborhood evacuations. Using that incident and a similar one in Louisiana, federal safety experts outline detailed steps workplaces should take now—like securing hazardous materials, planning evacuations, and training staff—to better protect employees and nearby communities this hurricane season.
