Narrative
At approximately 12:30 hours diesel fuel began leaking from the above-ground pipeline receipt header at delek's greenville pump station while reversing the position of a figure 8 skillet blind. The diesel had leaked past a third party valve that was being used to isolate the system. The delek logistics (dkl) greenville pump station is located at 2867 cr 2168, caddo mills, hunt county, tx. An estimated 555 gallons (13.21 bbls) of diesel fuel leaked from the above-ground pipeline header onto the pump station property. No adjoining properties or surface waters were impacted by the discharge. Absorbent booms and pads were immediately deployed, and free liquids were removed via vacuum (vac) truck. Tas, a third-party oil spill response organization (osro), was contracted to perform response actions which consisted of: 1) delineating and removing contamination from the affected area; 2) performing field verification that contamination removal was achieved; 3) backfill and return affected area to pre-response contours. The osro response activities commenced on july 13, 2016 at approximately 09:00 hours and were completed on july 28, 2016.
