Rockdale County Lifts Shelter in Place for Entire County as Cleanup Progresses ROCKDALE COUNTY, Ga. - The Rockdale County Emergency Management Agency (RCEMA) has lifted the shelter- in-place order for the entire county, following successful and continuous clean-up efforts. Rockdale County EMA and the Unified Command are aligned in recommending the lifting of the shelter in place to allow businesses, schools and the Rockdale County Community to resume normal activities. The decision comes after 72 hours of air monitoring showed no significant spikes, and there is no longer a visible plume. This includes the area within a two-mile radius of the BioLab facility. "We would like to extend our gratitude to all the agencies, neighboring counties, and our first responders who have worked tirelessly during this time," said Rockdale County Chairman, Oz Nesbitt Sr. "While the physical clean-up is just the first step, we are pleased to see our community beginning to return to normal." Residents and business owners affected by the BioLab incident can seek assistance at the BioLab Community Assistance Center, located at 927 North Main Street NW, Conyers, GA 30012. Appointments can be scheduled online at BioLab Community Resources.com, and a limited number of walk-in appointments are available daily on a first-come, first-served basis. For help with scheduling, please call BioLab's hotline at (678) 301-2359.

The first thing I notice, the dead trees surrounding this disaster site. Secondly, while the county continues to describe this as an “incident” it is in reality a “disaster.” Businesses are still impacted, several still being kept away from their property 17 DAYS after the chemical reaction and fire that those with direct knowledge said was 💯 percent preventable.

Here is an independent timeline of events. Each statement on the timeline is hyperlinked to a credible news article. I wanted to make this timeline because I wanted to see the facts plainly. To me, seeing the information in this way brings clarity, and reminds me of how crazy the situation is. I will update the timeline daily.

There isn't any guidance on how to protect yourself if you need to go outside. No mask or air filter distribution, NOTHING!!
#conyersbiolab #Biolabfire #conyersfire #conyers #Rockdale
This is what I'm using
Mask: shorturl.at/BGcm4
Filters: a.co/d/d1CHMhD
My husbands workplace is forcing him to work just a few miles away from the plant, he has pictures of smog all around him. Any advice on what do do, or what testing he should do? He's been wearing a mask I assume the filters inside the mask can be tested somehow. I've been doing detox baths for him nightly. Along with him taking liver supporting supplements. His boss is actually making fun of him for being afraid for his health. He's has headaches and bouts of nausea so far.
This is what folks are dealing with in #Conyers. Thanks to #biolabfire, utter lack of transparency, and lack of care for the impacted.
