Narrative
The gold line 4-way prover valve (at the borger product terminal) had a stem packing seal leak. When the leak was discovered, catch pans were placed under the leak and the prover was bypassed. 12 gals of gasoline was recovered in the catch pans and 2.5 gals was spilled to the soil (and later removed). The valve stem was repaired and new packing was installed. This valve was rebuild in 2009 (5 years ago), so to prevent reoccurance a preventative maintenance task was established in the maintenance management system to disassemble an inspect the valve at three year intervals. This supplemental report is being submitted to correct the original 7000.1 report which incorrectly specified this equipment as being "intrastate". The equipment is actually on a "interstate" pipeline, so this was fixed on this supplemental report. This report asked for additional information to be provided vs the original report. So the required additional information was added.
