On 8/21/15 at approximately 00:02 PST, the UTLX 200074 was found with wetness on the side of the car and a small amount dripping from the car. BNSF Hazmat responders and contractors responded to the location and found the Liquid Line flange bolts were less than tool tight resulting in spillage from the appurtenance. The fitting was tightened appropriately and spillage was cleaned from the car and impacted soils removed and stored for future disposal pending profiling and acceptance. There were no injuries, exposures or evacuations reported. PART VII - RECOMMENDATIONS/ACTIONS TAKEN TO PREVENT RECURRENCE Where you are able to do so, suggest or describe changes (such as additional training, use of better packaging, or improved operating procedures) to help prevent recurrence. Provide recommendations for improvement to hazardous materials transportation beyond the control of your individual company. Continue on additional sheets if necessary.
