That the local fire departments have all that info.

I would put money up that they have even trained inside he facility and been given classes on what is in there from the people running it.

And even if you think the owners wouldn't care, doing all that kind of stuff is what can get their fire insurance premiums lowered, and lowered by even a few percent on a facikity like that can means hundreds of thousands in savings so they have a financial vested interest in making sure that they do it. Insurnace underwriters look at that and your rates are influenced to a huge degree on how prepared your local FD is to fight fires- on everything from your home to big plants.

Th idea that nobody actually responding to the fire knows what is there or that the company would refuse to tell actual responding agencies is hairbrained conspiracy nonsense from people who clearly don't have any clue or experience how any of this works.
