The Site is the Glascock County Department of Transportation maintenance yard. The maintenace yard had 4 above ground storage tanks ranging in capacity from 1,000 gallons to 500 gallons storing diesel fuel and used motor oil. Initial evaluation by Glascock County personnel determined that there was a leak in a product distribution line that ran from one of the above ground storage tank to a dispenser located in a small shed approximately 10 feet from the storage tank. The spill occurred from a section of the product distribution line which ran underground. The diesel fuel traveled underground and began to discharge along the side cut of a drainage ditch along School Circle. It is estimated 1,000 gallons of diesel fuel was released.
