“Tyson’s the hero. He knew what needed to be done and protected his students,” said professor Pam Miller. Tyson Chappell, Ph.D., called the Carbon County HazMat team on Dec. 2 due to a chemical spill in the Reeve’s building second floor.
“There was a minor spill, no deaths” Chappell said. There was a 500 ml bottle of Paraformaldehide heating up in the biology lab. It became too hot and the bottom of the bottle cracked, then the fluid spilled.
“I called the HazMat team because I wanted to be safe. The fluids can burn your skin,” he said.
****I find it quite funny that this newspaper blurb didn't mention the fact that Tyson was totally at fault and caused the spill in the first place! Thanks to Pam Miller for helping Tyson keep his good reputation intact. Maybe Pam is wasting her talents being a college professor when she could have such a successful career in politics! ****
