Breaking: Jet Fuel Spill in Suisun Near Controversial Wal-Mart

Jet Fuel Pipeline to Travis AFB Ruptures in Suisun Near Major Highway, and Proposed Wal-Mart

SUISUN - A jet fuel pipeline that supplies mammoth Travis Air Force Base - and is near a controversial proposed Wal-Mart Supercenter - has apparently ruptured along Highway 12.

State, federal and local agencies are still trying to discover the source of the leak, that was discovered this morning by AT&T subcontractors smelled the kerosene-based jet fuel.

A spill in April 2004 of diesel fuel in Suisun dumped more than 100,000 gallons into waterways.

The jet fuel pipeline's proximity to the proposed Wal-Mart has been just one of the public safety reasons citizens have opposed the development.
