    1. On June 2, 2016, the USCG contacted the Houston SSC regarding a potential pipeline spill near Spring, TX. The pipeline is at risk of damage due to flood conditions on Spring Creek and severe weather in the Houston region. The pipeline has been shutdown and efforts are underway to remove gasoline from the line, but there is currently a potential of 650,000 gallons in the stretch of pipeline at risk. Spring Creek flows into the San Jacinto River and Lake Houston. The lake is part of the Houston water supply. The USCG requested information on potential downstream transport and impacts to water quality.
