Keystone residents rally to stem McDowell County diesel spill
In Keystone a tanker crash spilled diesel into Elkhorn Creek as residents rushed to cover drains with sand and hay barricades. Volunteers from Keystone Kimball and Northfork, led by 911 director Jimmy Joe Gianato, slowed the spill estimated at 4,000 to 5,000 gallons from a 7,000 gallon load, amid a backdrop of county recovery efforts after historic floods and proposals for regional consolidation and new jobs.
