Major Oil Spill Near San Francisco (Dupe)

Edited on Thu Apr-29-04 03:22 PM by Snellius

Emergency response teams are trying to clean up as much as 1 million gallons of diesel fuel that spilled into Suisun Bay from a ruptured pipeline, federal officials said Thursday.

A 14-inch petroleum pipeline owned by Kinder-Morgan ruptured Wednesday and spilled diesel fuel into the wetlands of Suisun Bay, which feeds into San Francisco Bay, said March Merchant, a spokesman for the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.

State and federal crews specializing in oil spill cleanups were at the scene Thursday about 25 miles northeast of San Francisco.

1. Tides?

Any Bayareans know what the tide situation is in Suisun today or where exactly this occured? Any chance of it moving up towards the delta?
