1.1.1 Incident Category - Emergency Response to an Oil Pollution Incident
1.1.2 Site Description - Lance Oil Gasoline Discharge
1.1.2.1 Location - 1539 Piedmont Ave, Atlanta, Fulton County, GA
1.1.2.2 Description of Threat - Oil in surface water
1.1.3 Preliminary Removal Assessment/Removal Site Inspection Results
On or prior to Saturday 17APR10 RP Lance Oil Company retained GA Oilmen’s Services (GOS) to advise regarding discrepancies in fuel volume accounting for a 4,000 gallon UST. The RP retained SWS to conduct initial defensive tactics (placing absorbent boom in creek) and GOS to manage the overall project including determining and mitigating the root cause. GOS has made the determination that an old steel UST that failed tightness testing was the source of the oil discharge and had the remaining gasoline removed from the tank. GOS coordinated their efforts with the GAEPD UST Program and City of Atlanta Watershed Management Environmental Section.
On Wednesday 21APR10 a concerned citizen contacted EPA who mobilized to the scene and, in turn, notified GA EPD Emergency Response Program. Free product was observed flowing into the creek and the original absorbent boom was saturated to capacity with oil. EPA instructed GOS to immediately replace the boom and apply additional absorbent materials to minimize the flow of oil into the creek. OSC Jardine and GOS then discussed a more robust strategy of excavating cutoff trenches to intercept the flow of oil prior to it entering the creek. GOS has conducted the preparatory activity including utility search and access approvals.
On Thursday 22APR10 OSC Jardine issued a Notice of Federal Interest to Lance Oil (c/o GOS Mark Faas) and reconned site with GOS and Pittman Grading. EPA clarified objectives and Pittman set out to develop tactics. GOS continued to coordinate activity and change out oil-saturated materials. OSC Jardine identified concern regarding oil sheen continuing to escape confinement.
