FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda Work will continue overnight to contain an oil spill at Shell’s Clyde refinery in western Sydney.
An unknown amount of a petroleum-based product spilled into Duck Creek at Clyde around 4pm (AEDT) on Wednesday after an overflow at the oil refinery.
Recent heavy rainfall meant the storm water overflow system was unable to contain all of the rain water, causing an overflow, a Shell spokesman said.
“Unfortunately, the overflow material contained oil,” the spokesman said in a statement.
“The refinery responded as soon as we were made aware of the situation and quickly deployed oil spill clean-up equipment.”
A Fire and Rescue NSW Hazardous Material team and Sydney Ports workers worked with Shell to contain the spill throughout the evening.
A Fire and Rescue NSW spokesman said oil spill containment booms had been put in place by Shell and Sydney Ports.
These would remain on Duck Creek overnight to prevent the spill from spreading further and the substance had been diluted with water and foam, he added.
No residents were in danger from the spillage, the spokesman said.
The Environment Protection Authority (EPA) has been informed.
