News Tidbits:

• Be careful when driving to the Soo. Cattle from the collision at Old Woman Bay have been seen at Rabbit Blanket. Reports are that there are still four cattle still wandering around.
• Algoma Steel had an oil spill yesterday morning, and the oil did enter the St. Marys River. The US Coast Guard stated “They had an equipment failure, which led to the discharge of oil into the St. Marys river.” The waterway was closed for an assessment, and was reopened later in the day. Oil is expected to accumulate along the north side of Sugar Island (Garden River).
