Thabiso Goba Tests are being run to determine the level of pollution from the UPL Chemical Plant in Cornubia, Durban.  The agricultural plant was torched on July 12, during a wave of looting and unrest in the area.  Following the burning of the factory, toxic discharge has flown into the Durban North beaches resulting in dead fish. The eThekwini Municipality has also closed all Durban North beaches as a precaution.  Residents living near Cornubia and Umhlanga have also complained of unbearable toxic smells entering their homes. In a statement released on Saturday, UPL South Africa said it is unknown at this stage how toxic the pollution is. UPL said there were several fires set off in the area so they are possibly not the only source of the toxic fumes.
