Detailed Description:
6/21/2019 @ 21:03:07 Lightning struck one of the system tanks and caught fire the fire spread within the concrete containment area burning approximately 23 tanks. The fresh water used by the fire department to put the fire out had collected in the berm and eventually overflowed the berm into our swell surrounding our facility. The product then made its way to the retention pond where everything outside of the concrete berm was contained. Once the fire was out and supply water for the fire department was shut off the over flow haulted. Recovery started several hours later once the fire department gave their ok. We first put a dirt berm at the entrance to our retention pond along with severl others spots in the swell. A vac truck was used to vac the product up off the ground in the swell. The pond was skimmed for product and then we used several vac trucks to extract the water from inside the berm.
