Subsequent Events [Abstract]
Subsequent Events	21. Subsequent Events Conclusion of Insurance Claims-Cherokee Facility-As discussed in Note 16, we filed an insurance claim for losses and damages in connection with a November 2012 pipe rupture within the Cherokee Facility. During 2013, our insurance carriers advanced $15 million on the insurance claim. In January 2014, we settled the claim with our insurance carriers for the aggregate amount of approximately $43.5 million (of which approximately $36.5 million relates to the business interruption claim), comprised of $15 million previously paid to us and $28.5 million paid to us in January 2014. The $43.5 million settlement amount is net of our $2.5 million property insurance deductible. As a result, an insurance recovery of approximately $28 million will be recognized as income associated with this settlement in the first quarter of 2014. Downtime at the Pryor Facility – As discussed in Note 18 – Segment Information, the Pryor Facility has encountered numerous mechanical issues during 2012 and 2013. In January 2014, the Pryor Facility suspended production as the result of continued mechanical issues. Dividends Declared on Preferred Stock – In January 2014, our board of directors declared dividends totaling $300,000 on our Series B Preferred and our Series D Preferred, which dividends were paid on February 15, 2014. The Series B Preferred and Series D Preferred are non-redeemable preferred stocks issued in 1986 and 2001, respectively, of which all outstanding shares are owned by the Golsen Group.
