Linn County Hazmat Team Training at Linn Co-Op Tonight
The Linn County Hazmat Team will be at the Linn Co-Op in Marion, 3544 3rd Ave., this evening, Oct. 30, from 6:30 to 9 p.m., training on some new liquid propane (LP) emergency equipment. They will use a system that allows them to relieve excess pressure in an LP tank. This is done by burning off the excess product, thus preventing LP from spreading into populated areas.
This training will primarily cover the use and setup of the new equipment. The burning portion will likely only last 15 to 20 minutes and will not be a continuous burn. It is during this time that residents may see a flame similar in size to the one burning at the Cedar Rapids Linn County Solid Waste Agency on County Home Road.
