More than 1,000 barrels of oil were estimated to have spilled from a 108,000 barrel-per-day refinery in Coffeyville, Kansas, according to refinery operator Coffeyville Resources. The spill contaminated the floodwaters, which had risen more than 30 feet, sweeping into homes and businesses and turning roads into rushing streams.
