On 6/22/08, I received report from GAC Chemical Corp. of a release of 480 gallons of sodium hypochorite from one of their holding tank to the floor of the concrete containment area where the tanks are housed. All of the spilled product was pumped from the sump back into another tank. The corroded tank was taken out of service.
