| IV. NARRATIVE |
|
On 9.8.13, Chris Guessman, of Pan Am Railways, reported the discharge of 1 quart of lube oil from an engine on the tracks outside of the Verso Paper mill in Bucksport. The spill occurred because the containment tank underneath the engine overflowed. Speedi-dri sorbent material was put down on the tracks and the contaminated ballast was removed by Pan Am crew members. No further action by the Division of Response Services is necessary at this time.
