Thanks for reporting this.
We drove thru this, at the intersection of Rt.12, and
Beaglin Park and the car smelled like diesel for miles.
The car still smells like diesel fuel a day later.
Look at it this way. You won't have to worry about rust from this winters salt. There is always a bright side.
My wife's car went through it, apparently right after the "spill" occurred. She brought the car home with the underside dripping this chemical all over our garage floor. The smell was toxic and made me ill. I am a commercial truck driver and I have never smelled any "diesel fuel" that smells like that. I wonder if they will ever disclose what the "chemical" was that was "spilled?" If I lived in that area, I would don some protective gear and get a sample of that sand that was put down and have it analyzed to see what is running off into my water supply. I don't think that was any "diesel" fuel!
I wonder who is paying for this environmental hazard spill ?
Make a claim.
I'm still trying to figure out the "Coulbourne Mill Rd." part of this equation. Coulbourne Mill Rd. is at the other end of Nutters Cross Rd, not the Snow Hill Rd. end.
I think some pest control company, or hazardous waste disposal company, just opened their valve and emptied their tank going down the road, instead of paying to properly disposal of it. That stuff is toxic. That was no diesel fuel.
Smelled like turpentine to me.
Nutters Cross intersects Coulbourn Mill about a mile before Rustic Acres. There was a spill at that stop sign.
