At 0812 EDT, a report came in from the field of a fire in the north yard due to an "A" Main Transformer upper bushing failure.

At 1015 EDT, the Virginia Department of Emergency Management (VDEM) was notified of the event. Additionally, a notification to the Virginia Department of Environmental Quality will be made due to approximately 100 gallons of oil reaching the ground. As such, this issue is being reported per 10 CFR 50.72(b)(2)(xi) for "'Any event or situation for which a news release is planned or notification to other government agencies has been or will be made.'
