Important Quotes:
“The truck driver, identified as Larry Stanks, of Cincinnati, was treated at a Kentucky hospital after being covered by the chemical waste while trying to repair the valve, authorities reported.”
“Police said they were alerted about the leak by motorists behind the truck. ‘Evidently the fumes irritated their eyes and they had to pull off the road because they couldn’t go on’”
“Whitten estimated that less than 500 gallons of the chemical waste was spilled. He said the chemical “is an eye irritant, but other than that it’s relatively non-hazardous.”
