Incident Information:

(10/16/2017) An employee pumped a containment basin to an area where it was released to an unnamed tributary to Prairie Creek.  The basin was thought to contain only storm water.   - (11/14/2017) An employee pumped a containment basin to an area where it was released to an unnamed tributary to Prairie Creek.  The basin was thought to contain only storm water.  

In order to complete an annual underground transfer line pressure test, a section of blend line had to be removed to change out a valve. This removal caused an estimated 500 gallons of denatured ethanol to drain into the containment pit on 10/13/17. The denatured ethanol was diluted with water and was to be held until Monday, 10/16/17, for transfer by a contractor. Communication regarding this plan was not added tot he department electronic log. On Saturday, 11/14/17, additional rain water entered the containment basin. The Saturday night loadout operator sampled for alcohol, detected alcohol, and did not operate the sump pump. Early on Sunday, 10/15/17, a different loadout operator sampled for alcohol, did not detect alcohol, and pumped the water solution from the containment basin to the nearby culvert and ditch. An estimated 20,000 gallons of water with 500 gallons of denatured ethanol was pumped from the containment area. On Monday, 10/16/17, the transfer line project leader discovered that the containment pit was empty.

10/16/2017	Mr. Stephens reported he had walked the water course. He stated he would re-inspect any receiving waters. I recommended that the Cedar Rapids Storm Water Coordinator be notified.	RICK MARTENS
11/14/2017	A 10/16/17 inspection of the un-named tributary of Prairie Creek and also Prairie Creek did not identify negative impact to either creek. An incident investigation was completed. Corrective actions include evaluate and update the wet mill tank farm containment water removal procedures, review alcohol test methods, re-train storm water management requirements, identify best management practices for spilled ethanol, and utilize communication tools.
