| event text = During maintenance activities at Crystal River Unit 3, approximately 25 to 30 gallons of an oily water mixture was pumped from a manway/vault. A small amount of this mixture was inadvertently discharged to a storm drain that leads to the Crystal River Unit 3 outfall (discharge canal). There was a slight sheen observed at the outfall as approximately 1/2 cup of the mixture entered the outfall area. This is reportable under 40CFR110 due to a light sheen observed on the site discharge canal. Crystal River Environmental Specialists responded to the spill with a combination of sand bags, floating sorbent boom, as well as sorbent pads. After deployment of the sand bags, floating sorbent booms, and securing the pumping activities, the spill status was confirmed as ceased and contained. Notifications will be made to the Florida Department of Environmental Protection State Warning Point and the National Response Center. This is 4-hour reportable per 10 CFR 50.72(b)(2)(xi) as a situation related to protection of environment, for which government agencies will be notified. | | event text = During maintenance activities at Crystal River Unit 3, approximately 25 to 30 gallons of an oily water mixture was pumped from a manway/vault.
