Castle Pines Abandoned Drum

Basemap:
Description: Close up view of the condition of the second bung closure located on the top of the abandoned drum. Bung closures are threaded plugs on drums to create liquid-tight seals that stop dirt, dust, and contaminants from entering, as wells keeping material from leaking out of the drum during movement/handling. The bung and threads on the drum are damaged, making the drum not in a shippable condition.
