The water overflowed the structure, carrying a small amount of potash <br /> fertilizer that was left on the loadout pad during removal of the filter bag housing and <br /> auger. The discharge was stopped prior to the inspection date when an employee shut <br /> off the water valve and capped the broken pipe. The white stained soil was removed <br /> and properly disposed of, per Items 202 and 301 above. To prevent future <br /> contamination, the former fertilizer tank farm structures were cleaned, per Item 102 <br /> above, and the stationary fertilizer tank (#32) inside the containment was cleaned, per <br /> Item 3010 above. The property that the former tank farm sits on is no longer being <br /> leased by Simplot as of 15 January 2016. The owner is Steve Giannecchini. <br /> We feel we have properly addressed all items in your inspection reports, and in the <br /> Notice to Abate, for the former Simplot Grower Solutions facility at 7707 Jack Tone <br /> Road. Please review the information we have provided, and advise us if the violations <br /> noted in your reports have been adequately addressed.
