HILTON HEAD ISLAND, SC — About 1,300 gallons of waste from portable toilets spilled onto the road when a truck carrying them crashed, according to The State.
South Carolina health officials say the sewage did not leak into the nearby Chechessee River because a runoff drain was blocked with sediment and debris, the story stated.
The South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control likely will not issue a fine for the spill because it did not contaminate anything and can be cleaned up, the story noted.
Eyewitnesses told investigators the driver was speeding and driving erratically before the crash, the story added.
