CHEMICAL SAFETY AND HAZARD 

INVESTIGATION BOARD 

Sunshine Act Meeting 

In connection with its investigation 

into the cause of an explosion and fire 

which occurred at BP’s Texas City 

refinery on March 23, 2005, the United 

States Chemical Safety and Hazard 

Investigation Board (CSB) announces 

that it will convene a community 

meeting starting at 6 p.m. local time on 

Thursday, October 27, 2005, at the 

Charles T. Doyle Convention Center, 

2010 5th Avenue North, Texas City, 

Texas 77590. At the meeting CSB staff 

will present to the Board the 

preliminary results of their investigation 

into this incident. There will be a public 

comment period after the investigators’

presentation. 

At approximately 1:20 p.m. on 

Wednesday, March 23rd, a series of 

explosions occurred at the BP Texas 

City refinery during the restarting of a 

hydrocarbon isomerization unit. Fifteen 

workers were killed and about 170 

others were injured. Many of the victims 

were in or around work trailers located 

near a blowdown drum and stack that 

were open to the atmosphere. The 

explosions occurred when a distillation 

tower flooded with hydrocarbons and 

was over pressurized, resulting in a 

release of flammable hydrocarbons from 

the blowdown stack. After the staff 

presentation, the Board will allow a 

time for public comment. Following the 

conclusion of the public comment 

period, the Board will consider whether 

the preliminary facts presented 

necessitate any recommendations prior 

to the final completion of the Board’s 

investigative report. 

All staff presentations are preliminary 

and are intended solely to allow the 

Board to consider in a public forum the 

issues and factors involved in this case. 

No factual analyses, conclusions or 

findings should be considered final. 

Only after the Board has considered a 

final staff presentation and approved the 

staff report next year will there be an 

approved final record of this incident. 

The meeting will be open to the 

public. Please notify CSB if a translator 

or interpreter is needed, at least 5 

business days prior to the public 

meeting. For more information, please 

contact the Chemical Safety and Hazard 

Investigation Board at (202) 261–7600, 

or visit our Web site at: http://
