I checked the AGA Gas website and while they do sell many gases, they don't sell gas for heating. They're a medical gas company. So why do you seal off a large buling, put a huge ventilation unit at one end and gas pipes at the other? Don't answer that, I already know.

The gas plumbing going into the building is painted bright blue which is the standardized industry color for oxygen (all gas plumbing is color-coded by gas type). If this facility was going to treat sick people (especially those with flu or some other respiratory disease) oxygen would be a major necessity.

I know this is probably real boring but the trailers are made in Indiana and the government has ordered a bunch to be ready for the next Katerna or whatever. The government has been buying nearly everyone built in the last year. Now because of the lawyers and such they have to sit and air out before they can be delivered. I have a friend who sells electrical supplies to one of the manufacturers. Lots of jobs in this area building and transporting them.

Seriously probe, what kind of floors do you think they would install in a medical containment facility? Parquet? Wall-to-wall? Of course concrete. It's cheap and durable. And if the facility IS a medical quarantine/containment facility it basically IS going to be a prison. People are going to want out and there is no way that can be allowed.
What kind of facility would you build if you had the responsibility to quickly contain huge numbers of people with varying risks of exposure to a highly contagious disease? A disease that if allowed to spread could conceivably cripple the country.
Personally, I find the possibility that the government has a nazi-esque extermination plan in the works outrageous.

If, for example, this facility was going to be used as a medical containment facility that gas tank could be used for any number of medical gases. The gas plumbing going into the building is painted bright blue which is the standardized industry color for oxygen (all gas plumbing is color-coded by gas type). If this facility was going to treat sick people (especially those with flu or some other respiratory disease) oxygen would be a major necessity.
At a minimum they should be posted on the two exterior walls of a facility, access to a room or area, or each principal means of access to an exterior storage area. It is prudent to consider that the placard is to provide quick hazard information for emergency responders; it should be visible in case of emergency where the responders are likely to enter. If there are numerous areas where the responders could enter, there should be numerous placards. The placement and quantity should be decided using your best judgment coupled with the advice from your Authority Having Jurisdiction about your particular circumstances.
The 704 rating system is applicable to industrial, commercial, and institutional facilities that manufacture, process, use, or store hazardous materials. It is important to note that the standard is not applicable to transportation or for use by the general public. This is a relevant matter, because the NFPA 704 system is often confused with the placarding required by the Department of Transportation for hazardous materials. The standard is also not applicable to chronic exposures or to nonemergency occupational exposure.

don't judge a book by the cover with regards to the tank.
however, if it was oxygen, there is nothing i've seen to indicate that it's not for a huge blast furnace (crematorium).
dark, huh?

Remember, they aren't going to spend $10 to do something when it only requires $1.

As for the "excuse", or a reason to quarantine people... I wish I could remember its name, but I've seen a few articles and threads about a new disease in which weird stuff grows out of people's bodies, and they have the feeling of ants crawling under their skin. This may or may not have relevance, but it did come back to me. It is a spectacularly weird syndrome, and it may be contagious. Can anyone add more detail? If I could remember the name of the disease, I'd do a search. It's pretty freakish though.

well,it was just an alternative explanation.
anyway, about what i quoted, you might want to study military 'budgets' more closely before standing by that statement, lol!

Not much can be made of this really as I don't know the code requirements today and the tanks were probably installed in the early 1980's.

It's a good bet that it's an oxygen tank. A pharmacy not far from my house has an identical tank outside their back door that they use for refilling smaller cannisters delivered for home use.
Just because we're not seeing a gas chamber though, doesn't mean the whole thing isn't suspicious.
There's no argument about whether or not these camps are being retrofitted, they are. The stated purpose is also clear - quarantine for illegal immigrants or contagious citizens. I don't like the idea, but I can't think of a single good argument for why the government should not prepare facilities of this sort.
