Title: Workmen Clean Oil Leak by Great Lakes Carbon Corp.
Date: 1978-02-10
Description: "Emergency pollution control crews worked to clean a potentially serious oil spill from the River Des Peres as attempts were made to patch its sources at the Great Lakes Carbon Corp. coke plant on the South Side Thursday. The oil has been leaking into the river from a lagoon that contains an estimated 3 million gallons of waste products, authorities said. Carl Walter, chairman of an environmental response team investigating the incident, estimated that several hundred gallons of oil have leaked through the eastern side of the lagoon since at least Monday. 'But while it is small in quantity, it could pose potentially serious problems,' he said."

Title: Southern Pacific Undercutter and Its Maintenance-Of-Way Crew at Indio, California
Date: 1978 - 10
Description: Maintenance of the ballast layer directly below the ties is an essential part of a healthy track structure, as ballast degrades over time and becomes increasingly fouled reducing its ability to drain, provide adequate load bearing support, and withstand vertical, lateral, and longitudinal forces. Southern Pacific used specially trained crews who operated undercutter equipment to restore ballast that had become fouled. The excavated material could either be fully discarded or screened and returned to the track, with only the finer parts of the ballast not being recycled.
