The estimated death toll in the accident at a chemical plant in Longview, Washington, stands at 11, including nine people still missing. Authorities reported this, noting there is no hope of finding additional survivors. Searches have been delayed due to concerns that the damaged tank could collapse further and spill more of the destructive liquid inside – a mixture known as white liquor used in paper production. Authorities said that due to the dangers, they will work only during daylight hours.
