Narrative
The location operator had opened a valve off of the main line that allows product to flow through a mostly buried 1/2" sample line to the change building at magellan's milford facility so he could check an upcoming product interface. As he came back out of the change building for the tank switch, he noticed product pooling on the ground in the vicinity of the sample line. He closed off the valve isolating the sample line from the main line and had operations control shut down the main line. An excavation crew was called in to dig up the sample line. Upon excavation, a buried 90-degree threaded elbow was found to be leaking. The entire line was removed and replaced. All released product was recovered and the impacted soil was remediated in accordance with applicable company and state procedures.
