Hazardous Materials 02/07/2020 INC#0359

Hazardous Materials; INC#0359; 07:54AM; 8350 W Mulholland Dr; http://bit.ly/2ukcv2O; Hollywood Hills West; A medium-weight tanker rolled onto its side on Mulholland. The truck contained 500 gallons of water in one tank and 60 gallons of diluted Metam Sodium (sodium methyl dithiocarbamate, often used as a soil fumigant). Some of the product spilled onto the roadway. LAFD HazMat Task Force 87 responded to identify the substance and mitigate the impact to the immediate area. The leak has been stopped, the spill contained, and is expected to have minimal environmental impact (degrade quickly). The driver of the truck was the only person involved in the traffic accident and has been transported in fair condition with minor injuries (due to impact, not related to HazMat). Mulholland is expected to be closed for the better part of the work day for clean-up operations, between Coldwater Canyon and Laurel Canyon; FS 97; Batt 14; Valley Bureau; Council District 4; BC14 CM42 E278 E287 E41 E97 JT4 RA87 RA97 SQ87 T78 T87; CH8; 12; -Nicholas Prange
