AT APPROXIMATELY 20:35 ON 5/27/22, A CRUDE OIL RELEASE WAS IDENTIFIED AT THE CENTRAL MANIFOLD AREA INVOLVING THE 20-INCH TANK 1558 LINE. LOCAL CONTROL WAS IMMEDIATELY CONTACTED TO SHUT DOWN THE LINE. APPROXIMATELY 2 BBLS OF CRUDE OIL WAS RELEASED. MANAGEMENT WAS THEN NOTIFIED, AND A VACUUM TRUCK AND A HYDRO-EXCAVATOR WERE DISPATCHED TO PICK UP ALL FREE PRODUCT AND CONTAMINATED SOIL. NRC WAS NOTIFIED OUT OF AN ABUNDANCE OF CAUTION AND REPORT NO. 1337204 WAS ASSIGNED. LATER IT WAS DETERMINED THAT IMMEDIATE NOTIFICATION FOR THIS ACCIDENT WAS NOT REQUIRED BY THE CRITERIA OF 195.52. UPON EXCAVATION OF THE AREA A FLANGED PIPE CONNECTION WAS FOUND TO BE LEAKING DUE TO A GASKET FAILURE. THE FAILED GASKET WAS REPLACED AND THE FLANGED CONNECTION RETORQUED. THE PIPE SEGMENT WAS STATIC PRESSURE TESTED WITH THE AREA STILL EXCAVATED TO ENSURE NO FURTHER LEAKING WAS PRESENT. AFTER THE STATIC TEST WAS COMPLETE THE AREA WAS BACKFILLED AND THE TANK LINE WAS RETURNED TO SERVICE.
