I never really thought of this before but we have a plant in town that cracks air down into the separate gasses. Oxygen is the biggie which gets piped to the steel mills for the Basic Oxygen Furnaces, plus medical grade oxygen for hospitals which goes by truck. Anyway there are huge earthen berms (nicely landscaped) around all 4 sides of the plant. Looking at them, these are far thicker and taller than one would need just to visually hide the plant. (There's no hiding the 3 tall cracking towers.) I suppose all that oxygen poses a a big risk should it ignite - hence the berms.
Under normal conditions they are a pretty clean industry: no smoke stacks and no release of weird chemicals. no waterway pollution, etc. Oh, and all those grassy, partially wooded berms make the parameter of the plant into a huge deer preserve. Inside the fence the deer are safe and they know it.
