Source of oil leak into Galveston Bay following barge collision has been contained, say officials
SUMMARY: Officials are monitoring an oil spill in Texas after a barge crashed into a bridge, leaking oil into Galveston Bay. The source of the spill has been contained, but engineers are inspecting the bridge for damage. The U.S. Coast Guard is leading the response to assess and clean up the spill. The spill is not expected to have long-term consequences due to the volume of oil involved. Evacuations were conducted on Pelican Island, where the bridge connects to, and the bridge has reopened for outbound traffic. The incident is reminiscent of a previous bridge collapse in Baltimore.
