Title | Offsite Notification Due to Minor Oil Spill |
Event Description | While performing routine ditch cleaning maintenance (on Sept. 13, 2004), a faulty hydraulic hose on a bulldozer caused a small release of hydraulic oil near a drainage ditch adjacent to Braidwood Station property. The hose was intact prior to maintenance beginning on the morning of Sept. 13.
It is estimated that 10-15 gallons of oil spilled on the ground, with a very small portion of the oil (less than one gallon) going into the drainage ditch itself. The oil on the ground has been removed. A compensatory oil boom was placed downstream of the spill in the ditch to collect the small amount of oil that went into the ditch. A thorough walk down of the ditch, downstream from the spill, revealed no evidence of oil. The Station will investigate why the hose failed and what actions can be taken in the future to prevent recurrence. Per Station procedures, official notifications were made to the Illinois Emergency Management Agency, and the National Response Center. In addition, Exelon communications notified the Village of Godley, the Godley Park District, the Village of Braceville, and the Braceville Fire Department District. Residents in the area were notified through personal visits. The licensee notified the NRC Resident Inspector. |
