Re: oil spill in Ramapo
Careful out there. It may not look like it is, but if you see anything in there, you can bet there was some overflow. It's not uncommon for the 'po to spill into the pond when the floods are as high as they were.
Either way, best of luck to ya!

Re: oil spill in Ramapo
Sad to hear but the fishkill was probably caused by the many millions of gallons of raw sewage bypass upriver as far as Harriman.
Unfortunately the nature of the beast whenever we get large volumes of water too quickly. All of the waters took a beating. The rain this week should work out well flushing out the "crap".
