Narrative
The morning of 10/08/2014 at 0735 hrs station personnel were preforming the operator rounds when a leak was noticed from a valve on sm17. Console 4 was contacted and the line was shut down. The valve body bleeder was found to be partially open with no cap on the end of the tubing from comissioning. This was a new install during the early spring of this year with some recent painting acitvities which is believed to have bumped the needle valve enough to partially open it with the release occuring during an early morning delivery. Based on the spill to soil estimator 5 1/2 gallons was released. All notifications were made, no injuries occured.
