IV. NARRATIVE
I received a report of up to 100 gallons of oil spilled at the subject location resulting from a damaged oil supply line. I arrived at the site and found that the line had been damaged somehow, but there was only very minor spillage apparent. I removed a small bag of contaminated soil which appeared to resolve the problem. I then surveyed the area with a soil auger and found no further evidence of contamination.A call to the homeowner revealed she does not track her oil usage very closely as it wasn't a primary heat source. She also had no idea how the line was damaged. The reason for the report of 100 gallons of oil missing was not clear to me. In any case, no other resources were impacted. No further action by the Division of Response Services is anticipated at this time.
