Investigation Summary
On August 5, 2001, during routine ice rink maintenance, the blade of the Zamboni ice making machine hit a refrigeration pipe, laid right below the surface of the ice, on north side of the rink. It ruptured the pipe and caused the release of the pressurized Freon 22 into the air above the "Ice Chalet" skating rink at Clackamas Town Center. Security personnel from Valor Security Service Company got involved in the evacuation of the building and seven guards got exposed to Freon gas. They were then sent to Sunnyside Kaiser Hospital for the evaluation of their symptoms, which included coughing, shortness of breath and light-headedness. The seven Security Officers were released from the hospital a couple hours later and none of them were admitted to the hospital.
