DICKINSON, N.D. -- Emergency crews temporarily closed Interstate 94 at Dickinson mid-Tuesday after a semitrailer carrying 2,100 gallons of hydrochloric acid overturned near an exit ramp. No one was hurt.
Health Department spokesman Curt Erickson says about 165 gallons spilled. He says the affected soil is being dug up.
Highway Patrol Lt. Kyle Kirchmeier says the truck overturned while turning a corner on an exit ramp. Kirchmeier says the highway was reopened early Tuesday afternoon.
Erickson says the acid was being hauled from Montana to North Dakota's oil patch.
The Dickinson Press reported that all the acid was hauled away from the crash site Tuesday, and the truck was upright by Tuesday afternoon.
