1119835 08/01/2022 Order Conditions Spilled 25 gallons of TWAS/primary sludge; recovered 25 gallons. The liquid/ condensate seperator that supplies Digester #5 TWAS and Primary feed valves failed. These two feed valves, which opereate off of a temporary flexible air line, failed in an open positiom due to a loss in pressure. There were multiple bleed offs on the Digester #5 manifold that were open causing TWAS and Primary Sludge to spill out. All sludge was contained and hosed to the digester drainage pit. A work order was generated to add additional isolation valves on either side of the TWAS and Primary Sludge feed valves. Additionally, a work order has been generated to repair the (sun worn) temporary flexible air line that is supplying the two valves in order to prevent failure. Violation B Report
