Fire department moved out
Truck leaked over 100 liters of oil in the middle of Tamsweg
What a mess! On Tuesday morning, a truck leaked over 100 liters of hydraulic oil in the center of Tamsweg in Salzburg. The fire department's clean-up operation lasted several hours.
Tuesday began with a dirty surprise for the firefighters in Tamsweg: they were called out to clean up an oil spill in the town center after a truck leaked over 100 liters of hydraulic oil.
The spill stretched over 800 meters. A road block was set up and oil binding agent was applied.
Oil also leaked into the surface canal
Disaster officer Christoph Wiedl was also called in, as well as special vehicles, as a small amount of contaminated material was found in the surface canal. For this reason, the hazardous substances vehicle (GFS) was alerted.
As a precautionary measure, the sewer line was sealed off with a sealing cushion. A specialist company was called in to pump the contaminated material out of the sewer and thoroughly clean the road with sweepers.
The fire department completed the operation at 3.30 p.m. with the support of 20 emergency services, the police, two sweepers and a sewer flushing truck.
Road traffic was restricted due to the work. There was no danger to the environment.
