PRCS incident kills 3, 1-entrant and 2 would-be resuers (HAZ ATM)

On October 9, 2023, at about 11:30 a.m., three (3) technicians tasked with performing maintenance work in an underground fuel reservoir died after they entered the underground tank.  All three died from suffocation. 

This tragic incident is like the many before!  A single entrant entered the space and became incapacitated, leading his/her co-workers to go in to help them, only to succumb to the same hazardous atmosphere.
