Storage Bin Collapse Halts Sand Terminal in Saskatchewan
Early morning at a Prac Sand Terminal in Burstall Saskatchewan two one year old storage bins collapsed after a structural failure. Winn Bay Sand Ltd yard foreman Brian Kuhl said the incident occurred shortly after 8am as he prepared to load sand. The bins capacity 150 and 20 tonnes will be out of commission for some time complicating the plan to haul about 800 tonnes daily. An adjuster will assess the damage then engineers will investigate and redesign the bins before they are reinstalled. Local workers will be hired to clean up the site. The Frac Sand product is used to help force gas to the surface at nearby gas sites.
