Augusta -
Officials are monitoring the water supply in the city of Augusta.
Hundreds of gallons of a paper-making chemical spilled out onto I95 in Augusta when a tanker truck overturned Friday.
The chemical spilled into a ditch feeding into Bond Brook.
Three wells that supply water to the area were immediately shutdown.
Officials said two have reopened but the one closest to the accident scene will stay closed until Tuesday.
We're told the spill hasn't caused any short term health effects.
