February 20, 2003, dust explosion at the CTA Acoustics, Inc. (CTA) facility in Corbin, Kentucky, killed seven and injured 37 workers. This incident caused extensive damage to the production area of the 302,000-square-foot plant. Nearby homes and an elementary school were evacuated, and a 12-mile section of Interstate 75 was closed. The largest CTA customer, Ford Motor Company, temporarily suspended operations at four automobile assembly plants because CTA had produced acoustic insulation products for those plants, as well as for other industrial and automotive clients. In investigating this incident, the U.S. Chemical Safety and Hazard Investigation Board (CSB) determined that combustible phenolic resin dust that had accumulated throughout the facility fueled the explosion.
