Those responding to a spill from BP's Whiting oil refinery into Lake Michigan found minimal oiling along the shore, the Environmental Protection Agency said.
The EPA said it was notified by BP of a minor spill from its Whiting refinery early this week. The company, acting under EPA oversight, has already deployed more than 2,000 feet of containment boom and vacuumed up about 120 barrels of oil-water mixture from the incident site.
