Narrative
On 3/28/14 at approximately 18:00, a third party called the kmcc emergency contact telephone number to report liquid leaking from the pig launcher door at the edna station. The kmcc controller initiated an emergency response line (erl) conference call with company subject matter experts to determine a course of action. A technician was dispatched to site and an update erl call was scheduled for when the technician arrived onsite. The technician arrived onsite and verified there was liquid leaking from the pig launcher door. The technician determined the leak was the result of a failed o-ring on the launcher door tattletale bolt. The update erl call was conducted at 19:17. The o-ring was replaired/replaced. Contaminated soil was cleaned up by early morning 3/29/14. Update 4/28/2014 supplemental/final report. No information updated within this report beyond this addition to teh narrative section. Dot data development team was trying to determine why we could not pick "o-ring" as a subcaluse under section g-6 of this report. The follow is their response: "the developer has informed me that your report does not need to have a sub-cause entered under part g6 due to it being a 'small spill'. I was also told that within the next month we will be releasing an update to odes 2.0 which will be removing the 'small spill' short form so that everyone will fill out the long form moving forward. Regards, data collection team"
