Toxic Spill in St. Clair River
According to this story, a Canadian company, Imperial Oil of Sarnia, discharged approximately 40,000 gallons of oil solvent into the St. Clair River which separates Ontario from the state of Michigan. The oil company apologized.
Michigan's Department of Environmental Quality and Ontario's Environment Ministry are reviewing the incident. Any assessment of penalties would have to be by action of the Ontario Environment Ministry. They have two years to complete their investigation.
Two years! Helluva job!
