Officials said Monday that pool chlorine was the cause of a hazmat incident in a Northern Virginia stream that killed about 100 fish last week.
On Sept. 7, the Arlington County Department of Environmental Services said about 100 fish were found dead at the Four Mile Run stream between South Walter Reed Drive and South Taylor Street. |

Peter Golkin, an agency spokesman, said at that time that officials noted a “chemical smell” near a storm drain and that “would indicate that someone probably poured something not good down there.” |
