[IIGB_All] Reminder-Liquid Nitrogen Tank Safety

[Brie Brown]

Good morning, everyone,
Over the holiday weekend, we had an emergency with the Liquid Nitrogen tank. It was accumulating frost around the top of the tank and along the hose for unknown reasons. It was determined that the value was not properly closed, and in turn, a leak was causing the frost.

Please ensure that the valves are closed properly when you use the tanks, as we do not want anyone to be harmed/injured.
