At proposed plant, disaster plan is sought

Fire union leaders urged Baltimore County officials yesterday to work on an emergency plan with the company that wants to build a liquefied natural gas facility on Sparrows Point, even if the officials remain opposed to the project.

Michael K. Day Sr., president of the Baltimore County Professional Fire Fighters Association, said firefighters who would be called to an accident or attack at an LNG facility deserve to be prepared - whatever the prospects of the project gaining approval.

'Politics shouldn't be interfering with emergency preparations,' he said. 'You can't stick your head in the sand. When the federal government says there's a need for a project like this and says, 'This is where it will be,' that's where it is.'
