DIESEL SPILLS INTO RIDEAU RIVER

Diesel Spill at Hurdman Yard Facility
Josh Pringle Tuesday, April 7, 2009

The City of Ottawa insists a spill of diesel at the Hurdman Yard facility has been cleaned-up.

Councillors have been advised that approximately 50 gallons of fuel spilled last Friday, with an unknown quantity entering a catch basin on property that drains to the Rideau River.

A boom was set up around the outlet to contain the spill at the river.

The Ministry of Environment, Ottawa Public Health and downstream drinking water system operators have been notified of the event.
(Just in case RAW SEWAGE isn't bad enough... CITY COUNCILLORS MUST BE FIRED! You cannot expect a city to function properly when idiots are in charge! Seriously, this is the most moronic City Council I have ever seen. They're debating building a SOCCER STADIUM... Ummm.. HELLO! WAKE THE FUCK UP! Where are your priorities?)-W
