1.1.1 Incident Category
News reports indicate that up to seven oil tanks caught on fire from
a lightning strike at a facility south west of downtown Oklahoma City. It is unclear whether the fire has been
extinguished but as of 0930, news reports indicate that it was nearly
out. Oklahoma Department of Environmental Quality (ODEQ) has been contacted and they have indicated that it raining
very hard at the time and that foam was used on the fire. Currently, there are concerns that contaminated fire fighting water may drain into a nearby storm water culvert that leads into Mustang Creek located at the facility. No NRC report
was made. OSC Leos has been dispatched to coordinate response efforts with the facility owner, local and state environmental responders.
1.1.2 Site Description
The Yukon Drilling Fluids Disposal facility is a private company categorized under
Oil Crude. It offers products or services such as
Natural Gas Patio Heater, Bp Crude Oil, Natural Gas Connections, Commercial Natural Gas and Liquid Natural Gas.
1.1.2.1 Location
The facility is located approximately 5 miles southwest of downtown
Oklahoma City and is adjacent to a residential neighborhood
approximately one-quarter mile west, and uninhabited farmland to the north, south, and east.
1.1.2.2 Description of Threat
There are approximately 14 - three hundred barrel capacity oil / water separator tanks on site and two salt deep water injection wells. At approximately 0800 hrs. on March 8, 2012 lighting struck the tanks causing a large fire / explosion which resulted in the City of Oklahoma Fire Department to respond using water and foam to distinguish the on site tank that caught on fire. There is a residential neighborhood approximately 1/4 mile west of the facility and a storm water culvert that leads to Mustang Creek that drains into the Oklahoma river.
1.1.3 Preliminary Removal Assessment/Removal Site Inspection Results
