14. Subject or Title of Occurrence:
UCON-170-X Lubricating Oil Released to Soil/RHIC Project
On March 30, 1998, the first line supervisor of the Cryogenic
Refrigerator complex discovered oil stained soil and spillage
at the oil
mist separator. The last time the area was
inspected was on Friday, March
27, 1998, at approximately
1600.
The spill of a maximum of 20 gallons was due to failure of a
sight glass
on the oil mist recovery system.
Shutdown and maintenance
05 - Shutdown
The spill was immediately reported to the Laboratory emergency
telephone number (x2222). The supervisor placed absorbent
pads on the
areas of oil contamination and a cleanup crew was
contacted to remove the
oil stained soil.
Failure of an O-Ring seal on the site glass
The piping system will be redesigned and all site glasses will
be
removed.
