A hazardous materials team was called Wednesday afternoon for a semi leaking liquid on Interstate 75.

The semi was hauling urea ammonium nitrate, a fertilizer, and a small amount of that was believed to have spilled on north I-75, south of exit 38 in Franklin, according to the Ohio State Highway Patrol’s Lebanon Post.

The leak was reported around 3:15 p.m. and had the right two lanes blocked, but it has since been cleared.

The Franklin Fire Department is on scene, and the highway patrol said protocol also required that a hazmat team respond even though the leak was small.
