"Emergency Evacuation and Shutdown at BP Refinery in Indiana Due to Power Outage"
A power outage at the BP refinery in Whiting, Indiana led to smokestack fires erupting, prompting the evacuation of non-essential workers and nearby facilities. The City of Whiting stated that the flames were intentional and part of a safety measure to burn off extra oil during power failures. BP is working to resolve the power outage, while a recent leak from the refinery was also reported last month.
