Report
The Steinbach and Winnweiler units were dispatched to an oil spill on the L 394 between Steinbach am Donnersberg and Dannenfels. The Steinbach unit found a diesel spill stretching about 250 meters, as well as the vehicle responsible. The diesel had leaked due to a mechanical failure.
Since it was a rural road, the LBM was notified as the agency responsible for road maintenance. Firefighters spread a binding agent on the spill, and the roadway was then cleaned. After an LBM vehicle arrived, the scene was handed over to the LBM employee, who set up appropriate warning signs for road users.
