“在[时间啊mitted] our department responded to a HAZMAT incident involving ethyl alcohol. Approximately 2000 gallons of product were spilled onto the ground when the tanker truck rolled onto its side, damaging the man-way cover and rupturing the tank.We only had 15 gallons of AR-AFFF foam available, so a call for more foam was placed to other departments in the area.There was a mixture of new, old and several different types and concentrations of AR-AFFF. When switching from an empty bucket to a fresh one, the inductor plugged, causing a loss of foam on the line and interrupting vapor suppression tactics…due to the lack of materials, we continued to use the foam and clear the plugged inductor as was needed for the duration of the call.”
From the Lessons Learned text:
“This had no detrimental effect on the overall outcome of the situation. After the debriefing, we were able to start the process to order and maintain a reserve of AR AFFF and re-educate ourselves on foam compatibility and recognition of possible problems.”
