They figure if it is the target of a successful terrorist attack they would lose all of downtown Boston and most of the area within a 2 miles radius. It is a serious safety concern.

Wow, I'm within that zone...less than 1/2 a mile.

I'm outta here on weekends from now on... :(

I don't know what your anxiety level is like but if you feel up to it you might want to google some info about LNG tankers and safety zones around them.

There are some school districts MA that won't let their schools take field trips into Boston because of the LNG tankers.

Fall River had an LNG tanker site proposed and the Globe did a report on the effects of an accident. They had a map of the devastation area. Pretty chilling.

Last I knew in the U.S. there were only 3 or 4 LNG tanker sites near population areas.
