Documents show prior citations before blast at Tenn. facility

[Igel]

6. I read yesterday in a report that didn't stand back in shock but wanted details and just details.

Apparently AES has 7-8 distinct and separate facilities at the site (I think I read 8, but maybe it was 7). They produce military, industrial, and publicly commercial things that go "boom"--best way I know of putting it--ammo, munitions, commercial explosives.

This includes tons of TNT for the DOD, shaped plastic explosives for mining companies or for claymore mines, ammunition for law enforcement, hunting, and the military.

This was just one of the facilities. This one was allegedly just producing ammunition for hunting, LE, military ... one round is very much like another of the same size and weight.

Was *this* facility cited? If not, the citations are a problem but not immediately relevant; on the other hand, if it wasn't this facility that was cited, the fact that others were means it had been inspected and nothing citable was found.
