Recovery operations continued at all four ponds Wednesday night. Crews utilized seven collection points. The EPA continues the 24-hour/day operation with 20 vacuum trucks operating overnight at the ponds for oily waste recovery.
To date, 4,676,000 gallons have been shipped off for disposal.
The Shoreline Cleanup Assessment Technique (SCAT) treatment teams operated in River Divisions E and F on Wednesday and treated nine segments on the waterway. These segments now go back into the “to be assessed via SCAT” category.
The SCAT teams have signed off on 60 segments in the northern section o the river. The sign off is the final step in the SCAT process. This indicates that no additional recovery operations are needed in these segments.
A sampling plan has been developed for weekly sampling of ditches, ponds, and areas of the river impacted by the Smitty’s fire.

The U.S. EPA South Central Region has updated the Smitty’s Supply Fire Hub site with water sampling results and data tables. The link to that site is available here >>>https://smittys-plant-fire-epa.hub.arcgis.com/pages/monitoring-and-sampling~7f3958a0521a45119d9666c32a24605c
