came off the top of the trailer.

15Carty Carty Inc 2741 Georgetown Road,
Lexington, Ky 40511 859-255-6642 taken while the
driver was given my card and told to report the
spill using the 800 number on my card.
16Blood ooze out of pile with the back of the car
off. The wrecker is waiting to get access to the
car to haul it after AES can clear a pathway,
while a pressure washer is on the way to steam
clean chicken fat out of the pores of the
blacktop to make the road safer.

own chicken gut offal after it sloshed out of the
trailer

19The west edge of the feet, heads, entrails,
crops, gizzards, livers, and guts pile
20AES and the driver discussing what to do next and
watching the storm clouds. One problem is cold
rain does not remove the chicken fat from the
pores of the blacktop so hot steam has to be used
under pressure to decon the roadway. DOT worked
most of the night with me on the decon project
after the gross piles were put in three drop off
containers to be hauled to BJ Sanitation landfill

blacktop pores as the truck moves out of the way
