The Alpha Olefins look the most likely culprit, pretty dangerous chemical

 Quoting: DoorBert


Breathing of high vapour concentrations may cause central
nervous system (CNS) depression resulting in dizziness, light-
headedness, headache, nausea and loss of coordination.
Continued inhalation may result in unconsciousness and death.
Other signs and symptoms of central nervous system (CNS)
depression may include headache, nausea, and lack of coordination. Skin irritation si
gns and symptoms may include a
burning sensation, redness, sw
elling, and/or blisters. Eye
irritation signs and symptoms may include a burning sensation,
redness, swelling, and/or blurred
vision. If material enters lungs,
signs and symptoms may include coughing, choking, wheezing,
difficulty in breathing, chest congestion, shortness of breath,
and/or fever. The onset of respiratory symptoms may be
delayed for several hours after exposure.
Environmental Hazards
: Expected to be toxic to aquatic organisms.
May cause long-
term adverse effects in the aquatic environment.

Extremely flammable.
The vapour is heavier than air, spreads
along the ground and distant ignition is possible.
Will float and
can be reignited on surface water.

They've been trying to move people out of Louisiana since the gulf B.P. oil spill. This could be their best opportunity.

It wouldn't surprise me if someone helped blow the damn thing up themselves.

If the fumes can kill you why are people still in town? That seems like an evac situation. Practice putting an entire town in a FEMA camp perhaps?
