AT 18:45 AN ENABLE O&M TECH WAS DISPATCHED TO THE SCENE. THE O&M TECH REPORTED THAT THE PILOT CONTROLLED RELIEF VALVE BELONGED TO ENABLE (BM-28) AND IT WAS VENTING WHEN HE ARRIVED. BROKEN PILOT STAINLESS STEEL TUBING WAS DETERMINED TO BE THE CAUSE FOR THE VENTING. THE CAUSE OF THE TUBING TO BREAK IS DUE TO VIBRATION. THE O&M TECH REPLACED THE TUBING AND FITTINGS AND THE RELIEF VALVE WAS PLACED BACK IN SERVICE. THE GAS RELEASE IS ESTIMATED TO BE 4.6 MMCF. THE NRC WAS NOTIFIED AT 20:09, (NRC #1207823). A 48 HOUR FOLLOW UP (NRC #1207860) WAS PROVIDED ON MARCH 28TH AT 11:01 CST.\n\nPHMSA trend classification: not significant, not serious.\n\nPHMSA standardized cause: EQUIPMENT FAILURE — DEFECTIVE OR LOOSE TUBING/FITTING.\n\nPHMSA indexed costs: $13,528 reported total cost, $12,176.413 in 1984 dollars, $15,540.657 in current-year dollars.\n\nPHMSA trend flags, standardized causes, and indexed costs are analytical fields added to operator-reported incident data.
