(BRAWLEY’S WATER WAS NEVER COMPROMISED)….CITY OFFICIALS SAY BRAWLEY WAS NOT TAKING WATER FROM THE CENTRAL MAIN CANAL WHEN A BIG RIG SPILLED DIESEL FUEL INTO THE CANAL. THE INCIDENT OCCURRED AT JUST AFTER FIVE WEDNESDAY MORNING. THE EMPTY RIG REPORTEDLY WENT OUT OF CONTROL, RUNNING OVER A TELEPHONE POLE ON AUSTIN ROAD, SOUTH OF THE TWIN BRIDGES. THE POLE SNAPPED, AND APPARENTLY PUNCTURED THE RIGS FUEL TANKS. AN UNDETERMINED AMOUNT OF DIESEL FUEL SPILLED FROM THE TANKS AND INTO THE CENTRAL MAIN CANAL. BRAWLEY FIRE DEPARTMENT AND THE COUNTIES ENVIRONMENTAL DEPARTMENTS WERE CALLED TO HELP CLEAN UP THE SPILL. BRAWLEY OFFICIALS SAY THEY DID NOT RECEIVE WATER FROM THE CANAL DURING THE TIME THE WATER WAS CONTAMINATED, AND THEY SAY THE CITIES WATER SUPPLY WAS NEVER AFFECTED BY THE SPILL |
