Who Is Liable for a Refinery Explosion in Round Rock?Â
Round Rock and the surrounding areas have a large number of oil refineries and natural gas wells. Unfortunately, workers in this industry run the risk of being injured in disasters such as fires and explosions from working with flammable and combustible materials.
