Bourbon warehouse fire run off kills scores of Kentucky River fish

News »  General Newsposted Jul 8th 09:11:46AM by Banjo Bandolas

According to Jim Beam’s parent company, Beam Suntory, a warehouse holding 45,000 barrels of whiskey in Versailles, Kentucky caught fire Tuesday night (July 2.2019). The fire is now out but the cause has not been determined. Dead fish are floating down the river and piling up along its banks as officials monitored the scene and kept up efforts to minimize the environmental impact. Once the fire was brought under control, a containment system was established around the warehouse to help prevent runoff from polluting waterways and nearby drinking water sources, John Mura, a spokesman for the Kentucky Energy and Environment Cabinet, said last week. Aeration devices were installed in Glenns Creek and the Kentucky River to reduce the number of dying fish.
