Our crews have been working hard at a hazmat situation on the Tennessee River off Manufacturers Rd.
A crane mounted to a truck was on a barge and the barge sunk.
With the machinery underwater, we’ve been mitigating any contaminants with booms.
All environmental agencies have been notified, as well the owner. There were no injuries. The truck and crane were unoccupied.
