Toronto Fire responded to an oil spill in Lake Ontario near Sugar Beach and the Redpath Sugar factory on Thursday, but have since cleared the scene after determining the spill was “very light.”
Toronto Fire tells CityNews the spill will dissipate on its own, “with minimal impact to the environment.”
A large boat is docked near the Redpath building, but Toronto Fire determined it was not the source of the spill.
A fireboat and a boom to contain the spill were dispatched, but left the scene shortly after it was determined the spill was not significant.
