Tronox Titanium Tetrachloride Leak

This is a WTOC story on the HazMat Incident I sent a Twitter update out about late last night. Numerous Savannah Fire units responded and they used Fireground 1 (TG 36976) and Fireground 3 (TG 37040). CEMA units also responded using TG 12496, which was a digital talkgroup.

Apparently, Savannah Fire's boat, MARINE 1, does not monitor Marine VHF while on the river. During the incident, a ship passed through the vapor cloud and was trying to contact the "small boat with red emergency lights" on Marine VHF Ch. 16 and Ch. 13 with no apparent answer. It is surprising that MARINE 1 would not be monitoring at least one of those channels.
