Subject: OIL SPILL                                                       
Reportable Event Number: 37112                         

Discussion:

On Sunday 6/25/00, the licensee informed the NRC of an oil spill that was
the result of recent heavy rains and an excessive amount of oil in the   
oil separator pit for the site storm sewers. The licensee estimated that 
approximately 5 gallons of oil had spilled. The licensee made the ENS    
notification in conjunction with notification of other government        
agencies (National Response Center and Illinois Emergency Management     
Agency). The majority of the oil was identified in drainage ditches on   
the site and currently the quantity released is unknown. While still     
gathering data, the licensee now estimates the volume to be several      
thousand gallons and some has been identified offsite. The licensee is   
working with a contractor (Clean Harbors) for cleaning up the spilled    
oil. Samples of the oil have been tested for radioactivity and none has  
been detected. The oil spill is not presenting any threat to plant safety
and the licensee will keep the NRC informed of clean-up activities. The  
event has generated interest in the public and news media.
