I want to thank the University of Minnesota EHS staff for preparing and sharing a Lessons Learned report on an explosion in their waste facility this June. The Lessons Learned report can be found at
https://dehs.umn.edu/sites/dehs.umn.edu/files/safety_alert_-_thompson_explosion_aug19.pdf

And their updated guidance to their campus community about peroxide forming chemicals can be found at
