Authorities were still asking the public to avoid the area near Harvill and Oleander avenues in Perris, where a railroad tank car carrying styrene overheated.
Evacuation orders were lifted in Riverside County on Saturday morning after a chemical reaction inside a rail car parked on private property threatened to cause an explosion, forcing people from their homes two days before.
Authorities are continuing to urge the public to avoid the area near Harvill and Oleander avenues , where on Thursday When styrene is in transit, a stabilizing chemical is added to it to keep it safe, Cordova said. The stabilizer has a lifespan of 45 days. But for unknown reasons, the chemical was in the rail car for 55 days so the stabilizer lost its life, resulting in the reaction, he said. The car had been parked on tracks on private property where trains’ contents are offloaded, he said. He was unable to say who owns the property or the chemicals but said the train originated in Texas.
Crews continued to work Saturday to get the car as cool as possible, at which point a private hazmat team would offload the chemicals, Cordova said. No long-term effects from the leak are anticipated, he said.
