An Atchison, Kansas grain elevator will soon be back in business, nearly a year after an explosion killed six people. The City of Atchison has issued a new certificate of occupancy for the Bartlett Grain Company.
Investigators determined that the October, 2011 grain-dust explosion was an accident, but OSHA cited the company for safety violations.
The families of four workers killed in the blast have filed wrongful death lawsuits against the company.
