Narrative
The kaw pipe line companies hill city positive displacement injection pump packing gland failed. Failure was due to the packing gland retainer broke resulting in the loss of packing. Employees onsite from another company witnessed the packing gland failure and disconnected the power to the pumps electric motor and then reported the leak to the controller. The controller secured the remaining parts of the pipeline segment and initiated the emergency response plan. Most clean up was performed on the day of the release. The clean up efforts were conducted with the kansas department of health and enviroment (kdhe) oversight. Some liquid was recovered. The soil is in process of being remediated on site with kdhe's oversight. The hazardous liquid run off remained on site. The investigation reveals that the casual factor was metal fatigue.
