About 1,300 gallons of oil spill in northwest North Dakota
Posted 6:05 p.m. yesterday
CARTWRIGHT, N.D. — Health officials in North Dakota say about 1,300
gallons of oil have spilled in northwest North Dakota in an incident
involving a tank trailer.
Karl Rockerman with the North Dakota Department of Health says the
incident happened when a truck with some residual oil in its tank was
being filled with fresh water at Caliber Midstream Water Depot about a
mile west of Cartwright. The tank was overfilled with fresh water, which
caused the oil to spill out through the truck's overflow vent.
Rockerman says some of the oil affected an isolated oxbow of Charbonneau
Creek, but did not enter the creek itself.
Rockerman says cleanup is underway. He adds that crews are removing any
free oil at the site, as well as contaminated soil, ice and water.
