01/12/2020 TMBC to contact Environment Agency

04/12/2020 Environmental Agency response: presume the reports are from Tuesday around 11:30 am which is when they had a power failure on site resulting in a valve tripping and sending propylene to the flare. Initially the flare would have been smokey for a short time until the steam from the boiler increased and the valve reset. I understand the flare continued to operate normally for some time after that.
