Diesel Spill in Waterway After Log Truck Accident | Enviro Medics Hazmat Response

The Enviro Medics Emergency Spill Response Team recently responded to a log truck accident in Savannah, Tennessee Savannah, where approximately 100 gallons of diesel fuel was released directly into a nearby waterway. Diesel contamination in open water can threaten livestock, agriculture, and local ecosystems, making rapid containment essential.

Our 24/7 hazmat team arrived quickly—despite having just cleared another scene in Franklin only hours earlier—and immediately began working to contain and remove the diesel before it could travel further downstream. Using advanced absorbents, containment systems, and water-focused remediation methods, our technicians ensured the water was safe for the cattle that rely on this stream for drinking.

By acting fast and deploying the right equipment for a waterborne spill, Enviro Medics was able to protect agricultural resources, prevent environmental migration, and return the affected area to safe conditions.
