The Martinez Amtrak station mercury spill is larger than initially thought and may have spread to the platform and inside the train station.
MARTINEZ -- The Martinez Amtrak station mercury spill is larger than initially thought and may have spread to the platform and inside the train station, officials warned Tuesday.
The station remained closed as of midday Tuesday and Amtrak was using the old train station a few blocks away at Ferry Street and Marina Vista Avenue. "We have not confirmed that ," Kaufmann said."What we can say is we are able to monitor for mercury in the air, which is really the primary concern. What we have found is about 1,000 times less than it would be to be considered immediately dangerous to life and health."
