TUKWILA FIRE DEPARTMENT INCIDENT REPORT NARRATIVE
Page .1 Date: 11/15/95 Incident: 95-003868-000
While conducting a routine business inspection, noted strong mercaptan
(natural gas"additive) odor in paint prep booth, where workers were
grinding on bus. Requested Wash. Natural Gas response. Employees state"
odor is "normal" and routinely occurs during winter when paint booth
heaters are operating. Also stated there have .been employee
complaints, but investigations. showed no harmful atmosphere. WNG
arrived, tested booth,. confirmed odorof mercaptan, no. -explosive
amounts of gas indicated on meter. Checked rooftop heat system, found
that there is no heat exchanger (by design), and all products of
combustion of natural"gas are drawn into,booth where employees work
without purified breathing. air (although dust respirators are worn).
-
WNG representative felt that system was'operating incorrectly; and that
unburned gas was being drawn into system. Checked for CO in booth,
level read 10 to 15 ppm, not a critical level. However, odor still a
concern, equipment- not designed or operating -correctly. Requested
Tukwila fire inspector response, Lt. Mosley and Lt. Kohler arrived, as
did building"engineer. All checked out problem, Phil Johnson (bldg.
eng.) did.not feel the situation was any cause for alarm,. as it has
been this way for years. By'request of TFD inspectors, system. will be
shut down until WNG returns in the morning to inspect heating system
completely. Decision to be made at that time by TFD as to whether
further action to be taken.
