Stauffer Co.’s non-toxic gas
hospitalizes 45 in Houston
United Press International
HOUSTON — Human error
caused a sulfur dioxide leak at the
Stauffer Chemical Co. that sent 45
persons to hospitals with respiratory
problems and nausea, a company
spokesman said Wednesday.
“We’ve determined the emission
was caused by human error in opera
tion of a valve, ” said Stauffer spokes
man Elwood Lentz.
Five persons remained at Memo
rial Hospital Southeast Wednesday
but were listed in good condition.
They were exposed to the gas — de
scribed as nontoxic, but irritant—on
Tuesday.
Gene New, of the Houston Health
Department’s Air Quality Control
Division, said Stauffer was issued a
violation notice for the 6 p.m. CST
Tuesday emission. The leak lasted 15
minutes and plagued area residents
and Hobby Airport patrons.

Lentz said the company had re
ceived the violation notice, which
could mean and fine of $50 to $1,000.
Lentz also said Stauffer will pay
the reasonable medical expenses of
persons exposed to the gas.
“There are no long-term health
effects, but it certainly was a consid
erable irritant to those people who
smelled it last night,” Lentz said.
“We are concerned to the extent
that we certainly don’t want it to hap
pen again. That particular unit,
which makes sulfuric acid, is still
shut down and will not be restarted
until we’re positive we can control it
properly,” he said.
