‘We dodged a bullet’

Public Works Director Nick Bird just said at the water special meeting Ocean Shores now has a 75-90 day supply of liquid chlorine, after a shipment came in late today. Westlake Chemical in Longview is expected to be producing chlorine again next week, so … the Stage 1 Water Crisis notice could be removed soon (without having to move on to “boil before you drink” stages and potential restrictions). “We’ve got roughly a month to watch it and see how it plays out,” Bird said. “I think we dodged a bullet.”
