Fire Department

A passerby out walking the dog was concerned that the entire parking lot outside 530 East Bluff smelled of gasoline. Engine Company 10 was asked to check it out.
 
Firefighters also smelled the gasoline in the lot and were able to pinpoint the vehicle of origin, a Ford Taurus. Using an absorbent powder known as Oil Dry, they corralled the dripping fluid and covered the spill in the lot, preventing it from reaching the sewer drain.
 
The Dane County 911 Communications Center assisted by calling in a tow truck, and Engine 10 was able to contact the vehicle’s owner.
