Umatilla Chemical Agent Disposal Facility weekly project update - 11 Aug '11

Overfilled TC Campaign Complete

The splash shield and skirt designed and fabricated by UMCDF to reduce agent contamination in the Bulk Drain Station (BDS) during overfilled ton container (TC) processing worked like a charm. The final, and heaviest, overfilled TC was punched and drained on Wednesday without incident, concluding a very successful two-week Overfilled TC Campaign. Steve Warren, UMCDF’s project general manager, said the creation of the splash shield was a great example of the project’s ability to evaluate a problem or challenge, determine a safe and compliant course of action, and then implement it successfully.
 

Operations Manager Kim Jackson said multiple departments cooperated to help ensure the success of the campaign, including Operations, Maintenance, Engineering, Safety, QA/QC, Environmental and the Field Office.
