About 50 families (residents) living in Calhoun County near or in the city
limits of Marshall and town of Galesburg are being asked to voluntarily evacuate,
because the oil fumes (Oil and Benzene vapors) from the oil pipeline spill are
carcinogenic and so would be harmful to breathe.
The good news is that about 1/2 of the oil (about 450,000 gallons) has so far
been collected along Tallmade Creek and the Kalamazoo River. Authorities are
promising that the spill will be cleaned-up to pre-existing conditions. Currently
Enbridge, the company responsible, is using oil skimmers, vacume trucks, and
absorbent booms to help correct the environmental disaster. The oil thus far
has killed lots of fish and has caked geese along the Kalamazoo River besides
threatening Morrow Lake and Lake Michigan. Families displaced will be put
up in motels within the area. It is unknown how long this displacement will
be. Water Wells are also at risk, so people are also being advised not to drink
the water.
The sad part of this oil spill is that it could have been prevented. The U.S. Depart.
of Transportation’s Pipeline had warned the company back in January that they
were not properly protecting or monitorring the corrision in the pipe.
