One of the fuel terminals in Birmingham off of Ishkooda is leaking gasoline. Fuel going straight into a creek supposedly. Police are contemplating evacuations.

Surrounding areas I assume. Right now they just have the road that is in front of the fuel terminals blocked off.

Are those the tanks you can see from Red Mt Park right off Lakeshore?

I was over off Industrial just a bit ago. Not too far off. That's gonna be a pain if they evacuate. Alotta homes around there.

Yup. The area is where most of Bham and the surrounding area gets its fuel from. Supposedly it is the pipeline right there that is leaking is what we're being told.
