RICHMOND, Va. (AP) - A barge spilled at least 1,200 gallons of red diesel fuel into the James River after it ran aground, but officials said it was largely contained by booms.
There were no immediate reports of any dead fish or injured birds, said Jerry Crooks, a spokesman for the Coast Guard in Norfolk.
The 300-foot barge, owned By Vane Line Bunkering of Baltimore, had just picked up its cargo south of Richmond when it ran aground on Sunday morning.
