Yesterday's events at the US Congress show that the "unthinkable" does happen. Should be a reminder to all orgs (public and private) to review their physical security situation, their escalation processes, their mutual assistance agreements, and their crisis plans. #NextGenEM

“The Kingston coal ash spill was the nation’s largest industrial disaster to date, releasing five times as much toxic material as the 2010 explosion of BP’s Deepwater Horizon oil rig.”
