The semi had crashed on its side, and two fuel tanks had broken, leaking diesel onto the roadway.
The spill was reported to the DNR, as some of the fuel did get into the mineral soil and wetland area surrounding the highway. Traffic was diverted and that portion of Highway 54 was closed for a time on Tuesday evening.
