Today a spill large enough to create a sheen on the water is sufficient to call in the EPA.

Diesel will soften the asphalt and force them to replace it. I’m sure thats worth a million dollars in fines. 5 whole gallons is hugh and series.

Yeah, and I learned, after 9/11 when I worked at Wamu that powdered sugar from a donut spilled on an office carpet is enough to call the HAZMAT team. :-)

Yeah, they evacuated a 15+ story building over doughnut sugar.

That’s the problem. The laws themselves cry wolf so much that you just stop respecting them - even if they really matter. Heck, around here people pour their used motor oil in the dirt around the poles of their pole barns to protect the wood.
