KREMLIN, Okla. — Authorities are dealing with an oil spill north of Enid that was reported Friday morning, June 2, 2023. Matt Skinner, Oklahoma Corporation Commission spokesman, said the spill is near West Keowee Road and North Garland at a mud disposal operation owned by Nemaha Environmental Services between Kremlin and Hillsdale. The spill was reported at 8:30 a.m. The substance in the spill is crude oil, which was extracted from drill mud. The reclaimed oil ran into a pit, Skinner said, and the pit oil overflowed into Nine Mile Creek.
