A 2024 chemical fire at a Georgia plant released toxic fumes, forcing evacuations and exposing long-standing safety concerns.
A Georgia town near Conyers is still recovering from a 2024 chemical fire at the BioLab facility that released a toxic plume, forcing evacuations and shelter-in-place orders.
The blaze began when chlorine-based chemicals mixed with water, triggering a flash fire and a second explosion later that day.
Residents described panic and lasting trauma, with concerns over health and property values.
The plant has a history of safety incidents since 2004, including multiple fires, raising alarms about long-standing risks.
Federal oversight has been criticized, with the U.S. Chemical Safety Board noting the facility stored over 14 million pounds of chemicals—more than previously disclosed—while lacking enforcement power.
BioLab says it has improved safety measures and is cooperating with investigations, but no final findings have been released.
