The leak began on Monday, and was spread by winds, over night.
Lubrizol produces mercaptan, at the plant, which is the harmless gas added to natural gas to warn people of leaks.
In it's pure form, undiluted, mercaptan can cause nausea.
Investigators are working to find the source of the leak.
Once they do so, operations can begin to shut it down.
For now, the entire plant is closed.
