Johns Hopkins will fund the cleanup of a massive oil spill in the Baltimore Harbor that originated from tanks fueling its health care facilities, a university spokesperson said in a statement Thursday night.

At least 2,000 gallons of oil have spilled into the Baltimore Harbor as cleanup efforts are currently underway, officials said.

Nearly 2,000 gallons of diesel fuel spilled into Baltimore's Inner Harbor Wednesday, prompting clean-up efforts. The spill was linked to a Johns Hopkins facility. Crews are using absorbent material and skimmers to contain the fuel and minimize environmental impacts.
