Tyson Fresh Meats, Inc. - Storm Lake, Ia.
Not affiliated with Tyson Foods.
THE QUICK READ
Tyson Foods runs a pork processing plant in Storm Lake, Iowa, where hogs move through slaughter, fabrication, and packaging lines to become fresh and boxed pork cuts. The plant covers both the kill-floor work and the further-processing steps that turn whole hogs into retail-ready product. It holds roughly 278,635 pounds of ammonia for its refrigeration system — large enough to require a formal process safety management program, since federal rules kick in at 10,000 pounds.
