I don't know the answer to your question, Staten Island once had the world's largest liquefied natural gas tank (look for the abandoned tank field just south of the Goethals Bridge). On February 10th, 1973 there was a gas leak in the empty tank and the tank exploded, killing ~40 workers making repairs inside.
