Source: the Times-Tribune
Emergency responders from Susquehanna, Lackawanna and Wyoming counties have been called to an explosion at a natural gas compressor station in Springville Twp. where witnesses report gray and black smoke billowing from the complex out of a hole blown through the roof.
Helen Humphreys, a spokeswoman for Williams, the company that operates the Lathrop compressor station, was traveling to the station at around 12:45 p.m. and could not characterize the incident, but said all employees and contractors on the site have been accounted for.

The Lathrop station was sold to Williams by Cabot Oil and Gas Corp. as part of a deal announced in 2010 that also included a second compressor station and 75 miles of the natural gas drilling company's gathering pipelines.
Williams recently completed a 34-mile high-pressure pipeline from the Lathrop station to the interstate Transco pipeline in Dallas Twp., Luzerne County.
