| Spill Description: |
| A lease operator at the F23 596 well pad discovered that the line connecting the onsite pump to the tank battery had a failure and was leaking produced water inside secondary containment. The lease operator isolated the line, called his supervisor, and then had a water truck mobilized to the site to remove the fluid from containment. All frozen portions of the released fluid were taken to the NPR Solidification Facility (COGCC Facility ID 426582) for ultimate disposal at a licensed disposal facility. |
