Update Hazardous Materials Spill; INC#0863; 03:00PM; Harry Bridges Blvd x NB 110 Freeway on-ramp; https://bit.ly/3gQQFcU; Wilmington; 54 LAFD Firefighters, including LAFD HazMat experts will remain at the scene for the next 2-3 hours to help a private contractor offload a big rig double tanker that was carrying a total load of 8,000 gallons diesel fuel cargo when the tractor and trailer (both liquid cargo tanks) overturned. There was no injury and no fire. The leak from the one compromised tank earlier subsided, as tank contents leaked only to the level of a "tear" in one compartment of the (unknown front or rear) tank. Firefighters now estimate that between 200-500 gallons of diesel motor fuel may have leaked onto the ground prior to their arrival, and despite their swift dirt diking effort, some of the product may have entered the local storm drain system. LAFD is working closely with environmental agencies at and near the scene: Media Inquiries: CHP South LA Log #1653; FS 49; Batt 6; South Bureau; Council District 15; BC6 E221 E238 E248 E285 E29 E48 E49 E95 EM13 JT1 JT4 RA38 RA848 RA85 SQ21 SQ48 SQ95 T21 T38 T48 T85; CH7; 13 14; Brian Humphrey
