6+ min ago (262+ words) The railroad line that runs through the Peninsula has reopened after an Oct. 25 derailment in New Kent County, but the cleanup continues. DEQ documented the deaths of fish, amphibians, reptiles, and insects as a result of low dissolved oxygen concentrations in the water following the spill of diesel fuel. Microorganisms in the water use oxygen to break down hydrocarbons in the diesel fuel, causing there to be less oxygen in the water to sustain wildlife, the spokesperson explained.
