"Per your request, attached is data regarding sampling done in connection with the Energy Transfer Company (Sunoco) pipeline incident of May 10, 2018. This includes some sample returns from testing in the neighborhood and a sample that shows the composition of the crude oil that was involved in the incident. The Oklahoma Corporation Commission’s Oil and Gas Conservation Division (OGCD) has been on the scene since the incident and over the past weekend. This included witnessing the company’s sampling, doing its own samples to cross check the company’s results, and taking samples at the residences of those who had requested the OCC sample their property in addition to the company. The OGCD has now sampled all residents who have requested such sampling. Any resident who wishes to have their property sampled by the OCC in addition to the company but has not yet made the request should contact OGCD Director Tim Baker ([email protected]) or OGCD Field Manager Jim Marlatt ([email protected]). The phone number for both is 405-521-2302. The OCC sample results are expected within two weeks. The other Sunoco results are expected within the next few days. OGCD officials say the neighborhood sample results taken thus far (attached) do not indicate any serious issues of concern that would require immediate environmental attention. However, the OGCD is not a health agency. Any resident with health concerns should contact their health care professional. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact my office." Matt Skinner Public Information Manager Oklahoma Corporation Commission 405-521-4180 "There have been questions raised regarding the collecting of samples related to the pipeline incident. The Center for Toxicology and Environmental Health (CTEH), an independent environmental services company, has been contracted by Energy Partners to do the sampling and analysis. The OCC, as already mentioned, does its own collection of samples and contracts with a certified lab for the testing. Again, anyone with questions should not hesitate to contact my office."

Benzene is listed at 466,000 (ppm?) in the Sunoco crude sample. Is this good or bad? 5/22/2018 05:21:56 am
Did anyone else notice that page 1 of the crude oil report is missing? I see pages 2-20 and a data dictionary type report.

May be a fax cover page or useless info? Surely whomever receivd it can confirm for us. Don't really have a reference point for amount of benzene in crude oil.. but it seems to contain equal parts or more of familiar sounding oil/gas goodies.

We have contacted the Corporation Commission regarding the commission of page one. They told us that it was just a cover page but that they will send it to us promptly. Once we have it, we will replace the file including the first page.

In response to your question, the units of concentration used in the table for benzene are ug/kg (micrograms per kilogram or parts per billion). As shown in the laboratory results, benzene is a component of crude oil. Common outdoor sources of benzene include tobacco smoke, gas stations, and motor vehicle exhaust, to name a few.

Is Sunoco going to pay for the potential damage to the pool filters when I wash all of my animals off in there?

If anyone is found to have let pools into the pool area, they will be subject to fines and termination of their right to use the pool. The pool has already been cleaned and shock has been added to the pool in preparation for opening this weekend. Additionally, the pool has been tested after we filled it and the results are pending.

Yea but my animals are filthy. I haven’t bathed them since the pool closed. Comments are closed.
