Oil Spill Rumor Triggers City Water Plant Closures
Officials in St Charles, Glasgow, Boonville, and Jefferson City faced conflicting reports of a diesel oil slick on the Missouri River. Jefferson City shut its plant as crews monitored river conditions, while others doubted the spill, noting barge traffic could disperse any slick and questioning the source of the original alert. The proximity of Elm Point and other systems prompted cautious action without confirmed contamination.
