So I guess you think you can just fire up the old generator and run an entire plant?!?!!?!? Ascend has its own power house that actually sells power to gulf power. But it was down for maintenance and got the plug pulled. Nothing ascend could do. I’m sure they will lawyer up.

Ascend you need a backup for the backup for the backup. You can’t rely on Gulf Power. Always have GP to bring in a generator ready to hook up when performing maintenance on main generator & just in case the 2nd generator hiccups. But you know this, right?

Along with the 100 pound SARA Title III Reporting Quantity (RQ) threshold for ammonia anhydrous (reported as being 39 pounds under the RQ), the nitric oxide RQ is only 10 pounds (of which 692 pounds were released).

Both of the above substances are classified as “extremely hazardous substances” under the Emergency Planning and Community Right-To-Know Act.

Of interest is that the release lasted 33 hours.
