The Arlington oil spill turned out to be far bigger than anyone first admitted—over 6,800 barrels of crude, not the 2,600 the pipeline company originally reported. That’s nearly 300,000 gallons, with some ending up in Fort Worth’s sewer system and the Village Creek Water Treatment Plant. Cleanup crews say all the oil was recovered, but the city’s beloved Village Creek Drying Beds remain closed, leaving local birdwatchers frustrated and cut off from a spot that’s been a haven for both wildlife and the community. Should the city restore access, or is caution the right call? #Business #Industry #Arlington
