Accident Classified As:
process continued to try to find the source of the leak, which was originally thought to be two exchangers but was later found to be coming from a sample cooler
The accident was not preventable because there were no previous leaks on this exchanger (is an exchanger the same as the above sampling cooler? - where did the leak actually come from?). Remedial measures - the leaking cooler is being removed from service. LDEQ reportable quantities exceeded for volatile organic compounds
