A buddy sent me an email, said he saw it on Facebook, but I do not do Facebook.
I have no way to confirm this, does anyone know about this accident?
Part of his message:
It is reported that a vehicle belonging to a Kinder Morgan contractor has washed into the Pedernales River in Gillespie County. There is a container with radioactive material on the vehicle and in the river. The authorities seem to think container is secure enough that the risk of such material escaping into river is low. The Gillespie County Sheriff’s Dept and Fire Marshal are aware of situation and evidently working to get vehicle out of river. Another attempt to do that will be made Saturday morning according to my information. The site is near Goehmann Lane north of Hwy 290. This is not far upstream from LBJ Ranch and State Park. The river is really flowing now and water is pouring into Lake Travis. I think LCRA should investigate this incident. More exact info regarding location can probably be obtained from Sheriff or Fire Marshal.
