Investigation Summary
ONE JANUARY 14, 1985 AT APPROXIMATLY 9:15 A M, EMPLOYEES #2 AND #5 WERE ENGAGED IN NORMAL PLATING/FINISHING ACTIVITIES IN THE PLATING ROOM. THEY DETECTED A SLIGHT ODOR OF CHLORINE, TURNED ON THE LOCAL EXHAUST SYSTEM AND BEGAN FLUSHING THE DRAINAGE SYSTEM WITH WATER. THE ODOR GREW STRONGER AND WAS DETECTED AT A SECOND LOCATION, SO THE FACILITY WAS EVACUATED. AN INVESTIGATION INDICATED THAT THE SOURCE OF THE CHLORINE WAS A RELEASE FROM SODIUM HYPOCHLORITE, CAUSED BY A REDUCTION IN PH.
