- Tractor Trailer Accident
At 7:08AM volunteers
were alerted to the 3400 block of Highway 231 for a tractor
trailer accident with approximately 100 gallons of asphalt
primer that had spilled onto the roadway. Engine 1, Engine 4,
and Rescue 4 responded with 9 volunteers. BMVFD provided traffic
control and containment of the primer until the state arrived to
take over clean up. Due to the time of the spill and the heavy
traffic on the highway, multiple vehicles sustained damage from
the spill, creating a logistics nightmare for the morning
commute. Volunteers cleared the scene approximately 2 hours
after the time of call. Chief Whisenant had the Highway 231
command.
