Gasoline Leak Plugged at Bonners Ferry Station
Firefighters waded through half a foot of gasoline to seal a leaking storage tank at Cenex Co op in Bonners Ferry. The spill, exceeding 7,000 gallons, forced evacuations of a trailer park, motel, restaurant, and about eight homes. Crews used foam to contain the pool and remove the odor as freezing weather reduced vapor risk.
