Acsa cool on fuel-leak blame
Cape Town - The Airports Company of SA (Acsa) will take full responsibility for Tuesday's jet fuel leak at OR Tambo Airport in Johannesburg if negligence on its part is proved.
Acsa CEO Monhla Hlahla, at a press conference in Cape Town on Wednesday, said preliminary investigations indicated a mechanical failure was the cause of the spillage of an estimated 1.2 million litres of fuel into a storm-water drain at the airport and Blaauw Pan, a protected wetland about a kilometre downstream.
"The gasket (part of the valve) failed. A detailed investigation to determine the reason for the gasket failure has been initiated," she said.
