The Olin Chemical plant in McIntosh, Ala. Residents of McIntosh are suing Olin for leaking chlorine into the atmosphere and allegedly not warning residents. Residents of McIntosh, a small town just 40 miles north of Mobile, will have a day in Washington County Circuit court this week with four lawsuits seeking damages against chlorine manufacturer Olin Corporation over chlorine gas leaks.
