Heating Oil Spill on State Park Road

Summary: A significant heating oil spill, estimated between 75 and 200 gallons, occurred on 567 State Park Road in Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania. The spill originated from a tank in the back of a vehicle, which leaked oil along the roadway toward Route 22. Emergency services, including Station 71 and county hazmat, were dispatched to the scene. The Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) was notified, and PennDOT was consulted, but responsibility for cleanup was determined to fall between county hazmat and the contractor involved in the demolition. The oil was largely absorbed into the roadway, and no immediate threat to public safety was reported.
