The U.S. Chemical Safety Board said it will hold a public meeting on Nov. 16 in Gallatin, TN, to present the findings of probes into three iron dust flash fires that occurred over a five-month period in 2011 at the Hoeganaes facility. Two workers were killed in the first iron dust incident in January, and the second in March 29 injured another employee, CSB said. The third incident, a hydrogen explosion and resulting iron dust flash fires, claimed three lives and injured two others in May, the agency said.
