MORE THAN 300 GALLONS OF NITRIC ACID SEEPED INTO THE GROUND OUTSIDE A GREENHOUSE ON OLD STAGE ROAD THIS MORNING. THE SPILL OUTSIDE A NEW GREEN VALLEY FLORAL STAINLESS STEEL TANK WAS REPORTED AROUND 8 A.M. IT TOOK HAZMAT TEAM MEMBERS UNTIL AROUND NOON TO PUMP OUT THE REMAINING GALLONS. IN A COUPLE OF DAYS THE NITRIC ACID THAT WAS ABSORBED INTO THE SOIL SHOULD NO LONGER PRESENT A HAZARD.
