About the Irving Energy Bulk Plant − Saint John
This facility focuses on supporting the distribution of residential and commercial propane throughout the general Saint John area. The facility is located on Dunlop Lane, which is directly off of Crown Street in uptown Saint John.
Products handled at this facility include:
- Propane
The following information outlines the potential effects of this substance in the unlikely event of an emergency.
- Propane is a flammable liquid and a compressed gas. Propane can be easily ignited by high temperatures, sparks or flames.
- Propane is a health hazard and falls in the “explosion” hazard category under federal E2 Regulations. Exposure to high concentrations of propane can result in headaches and other symptoms of the central nervous system, such as nausea and dizziness. Overexposure may lead to vomiting and fatigue; as a worst-case scenario, if oxygen levels are sufficiently reduced, unconsciousness and death can occur.
