I he valve probably failed due to thermal stress from exposure to extreme cold. The system is
currently being evaluated to ensure against future failure. The Town will immediately implement
standard operating procedures to prevent this from happening again.
As reported by telephone on I ”' '
holding tank pumping system due to the structural failure of a six-inch check valve. The on-call
operator discovered the problem at 12:30 pm on 1/23/201 I while making a plant check. Plant
staff followed the spill control plan and began remediation steps immediatelv.
The release from the tank was approximately 63,000 gallons based upon the change in tank level.
The existing truck containment area was able to capture 36.550 gallons of the material and return
it to the oxidation tanks. 1 he remaining 26,450 gallons collected in areas surrounding the tank
and was recovered using the Town s Vactor truck, a third-party pumping contractor and portable
pumps. Approximately 100 to 200 gallons reached Little Creek via the existing storm drainage
system, but no detrimental environmental effects have been observed. Affected areas were limed
as required.
