Honeywell doesn't exactly have the best track record for containing environmental hazards:

>The United States Environmental Protection Agency states that no corporation has been linked to a greater number of Superfund toxic waste sites than has Honeywell.[184] Honeywell ranks 44th in a list of US corporations most responsible for air pollution, releasing more than 4.25 million kg (9.4 million pounds) of toxins per year into the air.[185]

And their impact is probably still being underestimated:

So it’s technically a different company now (AdvanSix), but to your point they spilled 2,000 gallons of phenol last year, some of which possibly entered the city sewer system.
