| Spill Description: |
| At the Russell 12-31 tank battery, a valve between the oil dumpline and the volume pot line was left open. Approximately 1.5 bbls of crude oil were released through the pressure release valve into the unlined separator containment. Approximately 1.5 bbls of crude oil was recovered using a vacuum truck. The petroleum hydrocarbon impacted soil is being excavated. Groundwater was encountered in the excavation at approximately 11 ft bgs. Laboratory analytical results received on December 5, 2014 indicate benzene impacts to groundwater above the CGWQS at a concentration of 17.9 µg/L. Excavation activities at the site are ongoing. Confirmation soil and groundwater analytical results and excavation details will be provided in a supplemental report. A topographic Site Location Map showing the general location of the release is attached as Figure 1. |
