 |  | NEPERA Chemical Plant
< on 8/17/2008 8:12 PM >
|  | | | Hi all, I'm new here, but been exploring awhile. Right now I'm riding my motorcycle around the US, but right before I started my trip, I went a few times to a chemical plant near where I live. It was shut down around 2004 but when I was a kid we got out of school sometimes because of chemical leaks. Wild place, with intricate glass tubes and deceptively huge distillation towers, firefighting equipment and control rooms, pipes everywhere. Their industrial waste site is actually pretty high on the superfund list, so you gotta be careful.

Here's a couple shots from the top of a distillation tower:

And this is what the towers look like, shot from a warehouse:

Enjoy!
EDIT: OK, so I'm obv a noob. Why don't html links work, and how do I upload a photo from an online source?

you need to get the direct image link; if you're not using firefox I'd highly recommend it in Ffx you would need to right click then "view image" then right click on the image "copy image location"
Then paste the link between image tags.

| | | | Too funny - I just drove past this place last weekend and a friend of mine was able to pull up the D.E.C. report - in it they were nice enough to say that "exposure levels are not volatile to accidental trespassers" or something like that.
Looks like a fun place.
