Flint Hills Resources – Updated event

# What happen this morning, we all heard a real big bang?  The FHR plant experienced an operational upset that caused steam relief valves to open to maintain proper steam system pressure.  These are large relief valves and when these valves open there is a significant amount of noise.  There is no threat to anyone but I am very sorry about the noise.

# That flaring is loud and black smoke. This is not routine.  The noise was from the steam system and not the flare.  There was black smoke from the flare for a brief period (less than 10 minutes).

# I check the website and there is no new message   The CAER Line message was posted at 0848 hrs.  I just called the CAER line and the message is posted correctly.  I visited the CAER line website and our message is posted there as well (message posted at 08:49:54).  See below.  Please let me know if I can help with any other questions from the neighbors.

New State Representative

Dear Neighbors,

 

The 84th session has kicked off in Austin, Texas and we have a new state representative for District 144. State Representative Gilbert Peña is now representing our district and we hope he can help the community with our streets. I have updated the contact list with State Representative Peña’s office contacts. If anyone has questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact their office at the following number (512) 463-0732. I have already submitted pictures of our streets to their office but, if more constituents report the problem it would be helpful.

 

Sincerely,

Yvette Hernandez
