Investigation Summary
At approximately 7:55 a.m. on October 15, 1998, Employee #1 was loading material into a trailer. A previously loaded 55-gallon drum of "SURFACEstrip 406" containing a corrosive liquid (monoethanolamine) was punctured by the forklift blade. Material poured from the punctured drum onto the warehouse floor into an approximate 10-ft wide puddle. Employee #2 got onto the forklift and moved it out of the way. Employee #3 responded to the spill incident by placing a barrier and throwing absorbent. When clouds were noted all three employees immediately left the area. All three employees were treated the hospital and were released later that day.
