On October 8, 2016, in Jenkins County, Georgia, a Kinder Morgan Southern Natural Gas pipeline leak which "sounded like a jet engine times ten," exploded at 2:30 p.m. and was still leaking 3 hours later. Highway 25 was closed; visitors at Magnolia State Park were evacuated; the nearby airport was notified, and a warning was sent to Norfolk Southern to stop a train. PHMSA says the cause was environmental cracking due to a weld or pipe failure that caused $353,000 in property damage.
