Ammonia leak stopped at Union Gap warehouse


UNION GAP, Wash. ? A mechanical failure in a compression room caused an ammonia leak this morning at the Eakin fruit warehouse on Main Street, but the situation is now under control, according to Union Gap fire officials.

One employee who arrived at the building just before 6 a.m. smelled the ammonia and was taken to a local hospital for observation, but Union Gap fire officials say she was not injured. No other employees were in the building.

Main Street between the U.S. Highway 97 entrance ramp and Washington Street was shut down after fire crews arrived but re-opened at 8:10, fire officials said.

Union Gap fire was assisted by the hazardous materials specialists from the Yakima Fire Department.

Eakin Fruit is located at 4310 Main St.

Ammonia is used in industrial refrigeration to cool fruit warehouses.
