Narrative
Landowner called jayhawk control center to notify there was a problem with a injection pump and it had caused a spill to leave the pump site and run 300-400 feet ending up in his pond. Landowner notified control center he had shut off both the injection pump and trucking company's act unit. Landowner then used his equipmwnt to dig small hole next to his pond to keep any more oil from entering pond. Controller notified local personnel and the first one was on site within 20 minutes. Spill response trailers were then dispatched. Upon the equipments arrival a series of hard and absorbent style booms were deployed to keep oil from spreading to the 90% of the pond that was not impacted. The pond collected the oil in it's shallowest part only 1-18"deep this part of the pond was also completely covered in cattails and small trees. All cattails and trees were removed from the spill site to allow cleanup of oil. Debris was removed with a long reach trackhoe and placed in remediation site nearby along with all impacted soils. All oil was then removed from pond over the next 2 weeks using skimmers sorbents, blowers and pumps.And then "cleared" by the kdhe. Remediation of soils began as soon as possible and continues on a weekly basis. Cause was determined that the packing retainer of pd pump backed out of threads allowing piston to push out packing
