MEDWAY, Maine (AP) – Crews from the Maine Department of Environmental Protection and a contractor are working to clean up the chemicals that spilled after a truck accident along Interstate 95 in Medway.

Officials say 12 plastic totes that can each carry 330 gallons of chemicals leaked after the Sunday crash.

The Bangor Daily News says 10 of the totes were empty after the crash. So far a total of 1,200 gallons of hazardous liquids have been recovered from the site.

The truck was carrying paper making chemicals destined for a mill in Bucksport.

Officials are awaiting test results to determine the levels of contamination which determine how to handle and dispose of the soil.

The driver of the truck is facing felony charges of operating under the influence.
