Road Grader Causes Small Pipeline Rupture
From Times Wire Services
A road grader ruptured a gasoline pipeline owned by Chevron Corp., forcing the closure of a fire road in southern Alameda County, Chevron said.
There were no reports of injuries.
Work crews were working Monday afternoon to get the pipeline back in operation and reopen a section of Calaveras Road near Sunol. The company did not know how much gasoline was spilled, and workers were evaluating whether there was any ecological damage.
The rupture was not big enough to disrupt gasoline production.
