IV. NARRATIVE
An excavator blew a hydraulic line while working in the Dragon Concrete Quarry in Thomaston. The oil was lost to the frozen ground below the ruptured line. The crew used dry sand to absorb the hydraulic oil. The sand was then scraped up with an excavator and stock piled. The sand will be put into asphalt once the plant starts up again. No further action by the Division of Response Services is needed at this time in this matter.
V.ATTACHMENTS
None
