    A HEPACO environmental response organization contractor skims oil from the surface of the water at ArcelorMittal Steel Mill in Georgetown, S.C., Thursday, March 20, 2014, while responding to an oil spill there. Upon arrival at the mill Wednesday evening, Coast Guard pollution responders discovered a portion of the containment boom, which always remains around the facility to protect the Sampit River from any residual pollutant, had gotten caught on a piling, creating a gap in the containment system and allowing the spilled oil to escape into the Sampit River.
