g. DESCRIPTION: At a service station, the driver of a freight truck mistakenly fueled a diesel truck with gasoline. Upon realizing the mistake, the driver drained the saddle tank onto the station grounds, which led to contamination of a nearby storm drain. The local fire department, California Highway Patrol, and San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department responded to the incident, implementing a road closure. No fires or injuries occurred, and no evacuations were necessary. The business has remained open to the public. The next steps involve completing an investigation and coordinating with an environmental specialist to clean up the affected areas.
