United States II: Utah Incinerator Fires Up After Delays The U.S. Army’s chemical weapons incinerator in Tooele County, Utah, began destroying VX nerve gas Friday after several delays in the past month (see GSN, Sept. 6, 2002). Shortly after beginning to burn VX, the incinerator was halted March 28 because of a reaction inside a collection tank, the Associated Press reported. The incinerator began operating again April 11, but was stopped April 20 because of problems with the storage of decontamination solution, according to facility spokesman Chris Sprague. Operations resumed Friday at noon, Sprague said (Associated Press, April 28).
