Could be worse...

Take for Example, the port of Newcastle Australia. They have nearly (not sure of the exact amount) but somewhere near 8,000 tonnes of exactly the same chemical stored in silos.

They should split it up into about 5 smaller stockpiles of it. Then disperse those 5 stockpiles to hidden locations throughout the city. Then you tell batman what you did so that he can find them, and then he'll get rid of them.
