Barge spills gasoline into Hudson

Front page news on the Poughkeepsie Journal today on the barge that hit Diamond Reef near New Hamburg yesterday afternoon, spilling gasoline into the Hudson. According to the report, the Bouchard Transportation Co. Barge B35 had a capacity of  3.1 million gallons. It was moved to Newburgh for repairs earlier today. Until the ruptured tanks are repaired, the Coast Guard will not know exactly how much gas spilled into the river.
