On Friday, October 18. at 1:52PM Station 52 was dispatched to Turner Lane north of Paoli Pike for a fuel spill. The initial report was a 4x5 foot area of fuel in the roadway. Upon the arrival of Engine 52-2 the corrected report was 50-100 gallons of fuel spilled in a large portion of the roadway. Squad 52 then made the response with addition man power and oil dry. Units were onscene for about an hour, special thanks to Traffic 54 for providing traffic control and West Goshen for providing additional sand.
