Wilkinson County logging nightmare. "Hydraulic oil spill estimated at 15-20 gallons left in this slough". The loggers had an accidental oil spill and continued working in it with their heavy equipment. The oil was scattered over an estimated acre wide area of water and stumps. When the loggers vacated the site the oil spill was left behind.
