State officials are still investigating whether december's deadly explosion at the n-d-k plant, could have been prevented.
NDK's top management agreed in court today they'd be back this summer to provide an update on the U.S. Chemical Safety Board's investigation. That includes a root cause analysis, a corrective action plan, and if neccessary, a hazard and operability study. These reports are expected to give the attorney general's office better understanding as to whether the blast could have been prevented and if any damage was done to the environment. NDK officials are cooperating with the law, but said they're not sure if they'll rebuild the plant.
"No decision has been made as to the future of NDK Crystal simply because the investigation is nowhere near over as the U.S. Chemical Safety Board indicated back in December, it anticipates to conclude its investigation in about a year's time." said Gary Vist, NDK Representative.
The next status hearing is set for June 18th.
