Update, Tuesday, April 16

A city pickup truck is there and a generator is running.

I passed this area late today.  A city truck was there and a pump appeared to be pumping contaminated water into a series of three IBC tanks and ultimately into a large green tank on wheels.  There was a faint smell of gasoline in the air. 

The initial liquid run-off from this incident flowed into the storm sewer next to the pothole I reported about several days ago.

Why?Town

We've had heavy rains like that before and probably even heavier rains a time or two without any leak so I figure the tank(s) have been slowly filling up and Tuesday's heavy rain was probably just the straw that broke the camel's back.
