if work proceeding under an approved Form 27: | N/A | | | | Spill Description: | | While conducting a routine inspection of the facility, a TEP pumper discovered that a produced water tank had developed a small hole near the base of the tank (300 bbl) and was leaking produced water inside the secondary containment structure. The pumper was able to temporarily plug the hole in the tank and a vac truck was used to evacuate the contents of the tanks and to remove the fluids from the containment structure. 100% of the fluids lost from the tank were recovered by the vac truck. The liner and secondary containment structure were closely inspected and found to be intact and in good condition. There were no impacts to soils or water resources. The root cause of the tank failure is internal corrosion of the tank. The hole in the water tank was patched using an approved epoxy material. The tank and patch will be tested prior to placing the tank back into service. | | |
