5,250 gallons of oil spills into South Platte River
Activists have had to make do with photos of tipped empty holding tanks and "fears of leaks" for a week now, finally a real live leak from a real live oil company.
Pollution in general doesn't seem that much of a worry in this flood. Lots of cars and gas cans and fertilizers and industrial sources but the sheer volume of clean rain water seems to have diluted most.
I was out shoveling dirt from the flood in streets yesterday. Things look better all the time, though creeks still seem very high to me.
