Testing done by the fire department and hazmat team determined the leaking fluid was primarily water and was not harmful, according to the fire department. A cleanup contractor was called to offload the leaking product and all other materials on the trailer.
The leak was reportedly the result of a sudden weight shift in the trailer caused by rapid breaking by the semi truck driver.
No one was injured during the incident.
The U.S. 35 east and west ramps to I-75 south were closed for more than three hours Tuesday as crews tested the fluid and cleared the scene. The ramps reopened around 1:20 p.m., according to the Dayton Police Department.
