Month-long clean-up operation for Connemara oil spill

The clean-up operation from the oil spill in Connemara will take a month to complete.

Over 2,000 gallons of oil spilled into Casla Bay yesterday. It’s thought to have leaked from a unit in the Casla Industrial Estate.

The operation is scheduled to start tomorrow.

Galway County Council says it's investigating the spill and the cost of the clean-up will be paid by those responsible.
