Fluorescent green sodium hydroxide liquid, leaked from Tesla's Palo Alto headquarters, flows along a street gutter. The chemical, which is used as coolant for Tesla's "AI supercomputer," eventually ran into Matadero Creek. Fire officials say more than 500 gallons were recovered, as cleanup efforts continue into next week.

Tesla doesn't have a permit to store the chemical, and "could be fined."

Cleanup efforts continue after Tesla dumped a bright green chemical into a storm drain last week from its Palo Alto offices, officials say.

@ampersine maybe letting it flow into the creek means they *aren't* storing it 🤔 (/s)

@iris @ampersine That sounds like the kind of excuse a company run by Elon Musk would make.
