® FULTON AVENUE resident Peter Wheatley displays a jar of sludge and a handful of oil-slicked twigs pulled from a creek near his home Monday.
Leaking oil from an abandoned ruptured fuel tank, located on a 1400-block Gordon Avenue iot, has befouled West Vancouver’s Vinson Creek near
B 14th Street. Said Wheatiey, ‘‘The smel! is appalling and the rats are circulating more and roaming about because they can’t get clean drinking water.
4 But what rcally broke my heart is when the little kids came by on Friday to paint a fish sign near a run-off vent in the street. How can you reinstate
the fish if bastards can get away with stuff like this?’’ The spill is being investigated by the provincial waste management branch.
