Cook Nuclear Plant Transformer Oil Spill Notification NPDES Permit No. MI0005827
Dear Mr. Morley:
The following notification is being performed per NPDES Permit MI0005827, Part II.
Section A.6.,
Spill Notification.
The spill was previously reported via telephone calls to the Michigan DNR PEAS Operator 32 at 4:45 a.m.
on August 20, 1995 and Ms. Lorraine Thomas of the Environmental
Response
Division at 2:00 p.m.
on
'August 21, 1995.
The spill occurred at 00:49 a.m.
on August 20, 1995 when the Cook Plant, Unit 1 Main Transformer experienced a
phase to phase internal arc
- over, which caused a
catastrophic failure;of the transformer.
Approximately 600 gallons of non-PCB mineral oil (Ultravolt 60) were
- released, of which 50 gallons were spilled to the ground surrounding the concrete transformer catch basin.
Per
- design, the bulk of the spill went via the bermed containment area to an oil/water separator where it is being recovered.
Approximately 10 cubic yards of oil contaminated soil was removed.
The soil was removed to a layer where there was no visible contamination or odor. Oil-Dry was used to clean up stains on the asphalt'.
and concrete, and the steel surfaces were wiped down with absorbents.
No oil was spilled to Lake Michigan, or reached the groundwaters of the State.
If you have any questions or require further information, please contact me at. (616) 466-2546.
Sincerely,
