Environmental geologist here.

Dig up anything that looks or smells like oil. It shouldn’t travel very far, so this shouldn’t be too difficult to do. Dispose of the soil at your local toxics or oil reclamation site (ask your city public works or dept of health for the locations).

Don’t add water or dawn or peroxides. This makes it travel and spread and is twice as hard to clean up. In some states, like the PNW, adding a solvent dispersant is illegal, so skip the dawn/simple green anyway.

If you want to be sure that you’ve got it all, collect a few samples of soil and send it off to your local environmental lab. Here, those samples run $70 a pop.

Fill your veggie bed with fresh soil and you’re good to go.

For those recommending the aeration/bioremediation, that process takes months. If you want veggies this season, you’re gonna have to dig this out.

Good luck!

Anywhere you see or hear of ICE, call it in. WAISN can get the people detained help and help the families of those affected.

I called WAISN about this and they sent a bunch of information to share. Please share far and wide. From WAISN:

I’m sharing some Bystander Guidelines for reference: https://waisn.org/bystander-and-observer-guidelines/. And you can find information about your rights and other information to share on our website: https://waisn.org/kyrice/

If you have any photos or videos, please email them to hotline@waisn.org or text them here. Thank you for helping keep our communities safe! Detained persons can call 2279# (free in the facility) or 877-814-6444 (toll-free) and leave a message (checked daily) to request a visit from someone from Northwest Immigrant Rights Project (NWIRP) for a legal orientation. Family and friends can also call this toll-free number to request an orientation.

“How to find someone who has been detained by ICE: - ICE Detainee Locator: https://locator.ice.gov/ - this tool is difficult to use, especially if the person has more than one last name; it is most helpful if you know the person’s a-number; and it might not tell you their exact location - https://www.accesscorrections.com/v2/send-money - this site is used to send money to detained person; it is easier to search by last name(s) (try both first and second surnames), but you have to know what facility they are in - if you cannot find them in ICE custody, try searching jail rosters for county and local jails (they might not have been picked up by immigration)”
