| IV. NARRATIVE |
|
On March 24, I received a report of a traffic accident from Bucksport Fire Department. The accident occurred at 196 U. S. Route 1 in Bucksport, and involved a tractor trailer operated by Brent Therault of PAF Transportation and a pickup truck operated by Stewart Leach of Penobscot. Mr. Leach died at the scene. The accident caused 80 gallons of diesel fuel and other fluids to spread along the roadway. In addition, diesel fuel entered a storm drain that leads to a brook that leads to the Penobscot River. Sorbent material was placed in the roadway, and sorbent boom and pads were placed in the stream. In all, 500 pounds of sorbent material was recovered, the majority of which was speedy dri.National Response Center was notified and the report number is 1143666.Coastal and land resources were impacted by this spill. However, the effects were minimized by the cleanup. No further action from the Division of Response Services is required.
