The tank overfill was noticed immediately and the correct valve was opened thereby stopping the overfill. The contractor dispatched a vac-truck to the location and was able to recover 100% of the fluid from the containment structure. None of the fluid escaped the secondary containment structure and there were no off-site or other environmental impacts. The root cause of this incident was human error. The contractor was required to investigate the incident and to provide a specific procedure to prevent re-occurence of this type of incident. Training on the new procedure will be provided to all drivers working for this company. | | |
