The Nation : Carbide to Resume Output
Union Carbide Corp. said its Institute, W.Va., plant is preparing to resume production in April of the poisonous chemical responsible for more than 2,000 deaths in India. State and federal officials questioned the move, and a congressman called for a hearing on the matter. Carbide said that an internal investigation of the Dec. 3 leak of methyl isocyanate from a chemical plant at Bhopal, India, owned by a Carbide subsidiary, probably will be finished by April and that any concerns about safety in Institute “will be satisfactorily resolved†by then.
