1) Incident at TPI Old Geelong Rd
18/11/14 This update was received from Olga Ghiri, Transpacific.
Hi, as a key stakeholder, I’d like to inform you that during routine operations earlier today at 10am, Transpacific staff detected a hot spot in a waste loading space at the Brooklyn Waste Transfer and Resource Recovery Facility, located on Old Geelong Road.
We initiated a call to the Metropolitan Fire Brigade to attend and manage the incident. We have also advised the EPA.
The hot spot was quickly and safely contained this morning by the MFB, and is under control with no active smoke.
There was minimal risk to staff and minimal damage to the loading space.
Initial reports suggest the cause was combustion of waste materials.
Feel free to contact me if you have any questions.
Kind Regards
Olga
