Unauthorized Discharge |
Jacket Water/Closed Loop System unauthorized release. A valve on the system that is automated has been broken so the valve has been manually operated (opened and closed). Wind blow debris (cardboard) got trapped onto a drain because of the suction caused by the drain in the basin. That seems to have resulted in overflow or release of closed loop system water to the ground/paved surface surrounding the drain basin. 20 to 40 gallons. The water has evaporated or infiltrated into the soil areas around the compressor building. A sample was collected of the water. Violation of WDRs, Section II, 9. |
