At 1057 on 30 August 2004, a representative of Valmont Oklahoma Galvanizing, Coatings Division, notified the National Response Center of a release of approximately 1000 gallons of 92% sulfuric acid. The release resulted from the failure of a 3000 gallon above ground storage tank. EPA Superfund Technical Assessment and Response Team (START-2) contractor was mobilized to the scene to determine the extent of the release and monitor responsible party cleanup activities.
