Truck overturns, spills
acid close to Huntsville
United Press International
HUNTSVILLE — A tanker
truck overturned Monday and
spilled from 1,000 to 2,000 gal
lons of a dangerous chemical on
U.S. 45 south of Huntsville,
causing officials to close the
highway for about six hours in
both directions.
Walker County chief deputy
Sheriff Ted Pearce said the
highway closed at 6 a.m. after
ambulance crews discovered the
chemical phenol, or carbolic
acid, leaking from the truck’s
ruptured tank. There was no
evacution of residents because
of the spill, but traffic was re
routed onto secondary roads.
The Department of Public
Safety reported that from 1,000
to 2,000 of phenol leaked from
the truck, which was carrying
6,000 gallons of the liquid. A
spokeswoman for the DPS in
Austin said one lane of traffic in
each direction was reopened at
about noon.
The truck driver, Vernon
Helbert, 56, of Baytown, was
taken to Huntsville Memorial
Hospital for treatment of minor
injuries.
