Portion of Miss. River closed due barge leak-USCG
HOUSTON, July 30 (Reuters) - Fuel leaking from a disabled barge closed 3 miles (4.8 km) of the Mississippi River in New Orleans, the U.S. Coast Guard said on Wednesday.
The river was closed between Mile 93 and Mile 95 after a barge disabled in a collision last week shifted and began spilling fuel oil again, a Coast Guard spokeswoman said. (Reporting by Chris Baltimore)
