At 2:48 PM on Wednesday, June 5, Station 49 was dispatched to the 600 block of Mount Vernon Road in the Limeville section of Salisbury Township for Spill Control.
Units arrived on the scene to find an agricultural field sprayer that had run off the road and snapped off a wheel. A large hydraulic oil spill had occurred as a result. The incident was also found to be in Station 42’s first due, and they were also dispatched to the scene.
Null’s Towing from Cochranville was summoned to the scene and responded with two rotating heavy duty wreckers, their spill containment unit, and a flatbed trailer.
Firefighters from both fire companies and staff from Null’s worked together to contain and clean up the spill.
Null’s then placed both rotators in service, and lifted the sprayer on the flatbed for transport from the scene to be repaired at Hoobers, Inc.
The incident was investigated by the PA State Police.
The final units cleared the scene shortly before 6PM.
