Update Hazardous Materials Spill 04/30/2021 INC#0863

Update Hazardous Materials Spill; INC#0863; 01:25PM; Harry Bridges Blvd x 110 Freeway on-ramp; https://bit.ly/3gQQFcU; Wilmington; *Corrected location* from Anaheim Street to Harry Bridges Blvd. The big rig double tanker was carrying a total load of 8,000 gallons diesel fuel cargo when it overturned on the freeway on-ramp. The leak from one compromised tank has stopped, as the tank contents are now below the "tear" in that (unknown front or rear) tank. The male tanker driver was uninjured and there is no fire. LAFD personnel have dirt diked the remaining runoff to prevent it entering storm drains, though an estimated 200 gallons of the product may have entered the storm drain system prior to LAFD arrival. 54 LAFD personnel remain assigned to the incident, including LAFD HazMat experts.
