1. BACKGROUND.

a. Oil Pollution Prevention.

(1) In response to accidental releases of oil that occurred in the late 1980s and that caused extensive pollution of the Monongahela River in Pennsylvania and Alaska’s Prince William Sound, the federal government promulgated the Oil Pollution Act (OPA) of 1990. The requirements of the OPA are codified in Title 40, Code of Federal Regulations, Part 112 (40 CFR 112), Oil Pollution Prevention, which establishes procedures, methods, and equipment requirements to prevent the discharge of oil into the navigable waters of the U.S.

(2) As the administering agency, the U.S. EPA mandates the preparation of an SPCC Plan per 40 CFR 112.1 by any facility that:

(a) By virtue of its location, could reasonably be expected to discharge oil in harmful quantities into navigable waters of the U.S. or adjoining shorelines; and

(b) Contains aboveground oil storage systems, including operating equipment, having a capacity of greater than 1,320 gallons individually or in the aggregate. This threshold quantity includes only the volume of containers that have a capacity of 55 gallons or greater.

(3) CCAFS is required to prepare an SPCC Plan because its aboveground oil storage capacity exceeds the 1,320-gallon threshold and an oil spill could potentially enter navigable waters of the U.S. 45 CES/CEIE, (321) 298-7022, monitors compliance with 40 CFR 112 for CCAFS and its remote operating location, JDMTA.

b. Definition of Facility.

(1) As defined in 40 CFR 112.2, the term “facility” includes, but is not limited to, any mobile or fixed building, property, parcel, lease, structure, installation, equipment, pipe, or pipeline used for oil storage, gathering, transfer, and/or distribution. Further, “the boundaries of a facility depend on several site-specific factors, including, but not limited to, the ownership or operation of buildings, structures, and equipment on the same site and the types of activity at the site.”

(2) In the publication EPA 550-B-05-001, SPCC Guidance for Regional Inspectors, Version 1.0, 28 November 2005, Section 2.3.1, the EPA states: “The extent of a ‘facility’ under SPCC depends on site-specific circumstances. Factors that may be considered relevant in delineating the boundaries of a facility for SPCC purposes may include, but are not limited to:

1-2

(a) Ownership, management and operation of the buildings, structures, equipment, installations, pipes, or pipelines on the site;

(b) Similarity in functions, operational characteristics, and types of activities occurring at the site;

(c) Adjacency; or

(d) Shared drainage pathways (e.g., same receiving water bodies).

(3) As defined by 62-762.201(28) FAC, the term “facility” includes nonresidential locations that have or had any aboveground stationary tank(s) that contain or contained oil, with individual capacities greater than 550 gallons.

c. Navigable Waters. “Navigable waters” as defined in Section 502(7) of the Federal Water Pollution Control Act (FWPCA), includes: “all navigable waters of the U.S., as defined in judicial decisions prior to passage of the 1972 Amendments to the Federal Water Pollution Control Act (Pub. L. 92-500), and tributaries of such waters; interstate waters; intrastate lakes, rivers, and streams which are utilized by interstate travelers for recreational or other purposes; and intrastate lakes, rivers, and streams from which fish or shellfish are taken and sold in interstate commerce”.

d. Facilities Included in this SPCC Plan and Site Specific SPCC Plan. Based on the federal definition of facility and the potential to discharge to navigable waters of the U.S., this SPCC Plan and Site Specific SPCC Plan includes all oil storage or oil-containing equipment with capacities of at least 55 gallons that are owned or operated by the Air Force or are under the control of an Air Force-hired imbedded contractor at CCAFS and JDMTA. Government tenant organizations and permanent contractors that operate oil-filled equipment or oil storage containers of 55 gallons or greater in capacity are also included in this SPCC Plan.

e. Facilities Excluded from this SPCC Plan. The following facilities within the boundaries of CCAFS and JDMTA are involved in the storage of oil but are not further discussed in this SPCC Plan because they are owned and/or operated by non-CCAFS organizations. These organizations are responsible for implementing proper spill planning and prevention measures to minimize the potential for accidental releases of oil. SPCC Plans, if required, are maintained at the respective facility locations by the managing organization.

(1) Florida Power and Light;

(2) National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA)-controlled buildings;

(3) SpaceX, Moon Express;

(4) United Launch Alliance;

1-3

(5) Space Florida; Blue Origin, Contractor Owned Contractor Operated (COCO);

(6) Transient contractors.

f. Deviation from Spill Prevention and Planning Requirements. No deviations from SPCC requirements are described in this SPCC Plan.

g. Site Description.

(1) CCAFS Setting.

(a) CCAFS is located in Brevard County on a barrier island off the East Coast of Florida, about 155 miles south of Jacksonville. The base lies on a narrow strip of land separated from the mainland by the Banana River. The facility is bounded by the Atlantic Ocean to the east and the Banana River to the west. The base is accessed by State Road 405 (NASA Parkway East), which is the entrance road to CCAFS from the west, and State Road 528, which provides entry from the south at Port Canaveral.

(b) The installation encompasses approximately 17,804 acres, and major features include 81 miles of paved roads, a centralized industrial area, a 10,000-foot skid strip, and two active launch pads, including Space Launch Complexes (SLCs) 37 and 41.

The active launch pads are used by both the Air Force and commercial enterprises for the deployment of satellites into orbit. In late 2005, the Air Force closed out the Atlas and Titan programs as well as associated facilities, which included SLC 36 A/B, SLC 40, Vertical Integration Building, Train Engine Maintenance, and Transporter Refurbishing Area. In late 2009, the SLCs 17 A/B completed the Delta II and III launch program. Responsibility for these SLCs has since been turned over to NASA.

SLC 40 has been turned over to SpaceX as a commercially operated pad. All operations and industrial activities under Air Force responsibility have been eliminated at these SLCs.

(c) The topography of CCAFS is relatively flat with an average elevation of approximately five to ten feet above sea level. The soil consists of sand with limited moisture holding capacity. Primary construction of existing facilities on CCAFS occurred before the advent of storm water regulations or storm water treatment criteria. As a result, a significant portion of the existing CCAFS storm water system design was intended primarily for the efficient collection and discharge of untreated storm water runoff. Much of the untreated runoff flows indirectly into the Banana River Lagoon through drainage canals or the storm water management system, particularly from the main industrial area at CCAFS. Several areas of CCAFS discharge to open channels and swales. Some natural treatment is provided for this storm water runoff in the form of ponds, open channels, and roadside swales. The upper soil layers on CCAFS are composed of sands with a fairly high permeability that readily absorbs rainwater during normal rainfall events. However, high-volume

1-4 rainfall events can provide sufficient water to exceed the soil's storage capacity, thus resulting in surface ponding and storm water runoff. Beneath these soils are a thick series of clays, sands, silt, and shells that are up to 100 feet thick. These deposits are underlain by the Hawthorn Formation, which consists of calcareous clay and phosphate limestone and acts as the upper confining layer for the Floridian aquifer in this region.

(2) Navigable Waters of CCAFS. Consistent with applicable regulatory definitions provided above, the navigable waters that could be impacted by an oil spill on CCAFS include the Atlantic Ocean and Banana River Lagoon.

(3) Storm Water Drainage Receiving Waters.

(a) A ridge line at an approximate elevation of twelve feet above sea level parallels the western boundary of CCAFS. The topography slopes gently downward to around six feet above sea level on the east side of CCAFS, with another ridge line near the dune line. The two ridge lines create a bowl that traps water across much of CCAFS.

In the 1940s and 1950s, Government operations created a series of deep canals that drained westward to the Banana River Lagoon against the slope of the land. Most of the canals are one or two feet above sea level, drawing down the groundwater elevation across much of CCAFS. The canals flow for two to three miles from the eastern ridge to the Banana River Lagoon.

(b) CCAFS is divided into 14 separate drainage basins. Basins 1 through 13 each have a drainage ditch that flows directly to the Banana River Lagoon. The remaining basin is the portion of the dune along the beach that has sheet flow drainage directly to the Atlantic Ocean. Figure 1-2 illustrates the boundaries of these drainage basins, labeled “1” through “13”, with the exception of the dune drainage to the Atlantic Ocean as it is too narrow to delineate on the map.

(4) Storm Water Outfalls. As identified in the 45 SW Plan, Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan, CCAFS has 13 major storm water outfalls to the Banana River Lagoon.

Five outfalls currently receive some level of treatment through wetlands or permitted storm water systems. The remaining eight outfalls discharge untreated storm water to the Banana River Lagoon. Sixty-two (62) of the developed sites at CCAFS have permitted storm water treatment systems. Seventy-four (74) percent of CCAFS is undeveloped natural land and abandoned citrus groves. There are no defined outfall points to the Atlantic Ocean.

(5) Groundwater. Water that does not evaporate or transpire infiltrates into the soil until it reaches the groundwater table, recharging the surficial aquifer. With the sandy soils of the barrier island, a large percentage of the rainfall infiltrates into the ground. The surficial aquifer flows laterally toward the Atlantic Ocean and Banana River Lagoon.

1-5

(6) Oil Storage on CCAFS. Oil, which is defined in 40 CFR 112.2 and includes oil of any kind or in any form, is stored or used at a number of locations on CCAFS. The types of oil stored in bulk on the installation typically include gasoline, diesel fuel, jet fuel, and used oil. Oil-filled equipment on the base consists primarily of transformers that are typically filled with mineral oil, elevators, cranes, and forklifts that are filled with hydraulic fluid. Used cooking oils and grease are also accumulated at the various dining facilities prior to being picked up by a recycling contractor. 45 CES/CEIE maintains the inventory of oil storage containers subject to this SPCC Plan. The locations of oil storage containers on CCAFS are in the Site Specific SPCC Plan.

(a) Responsibility for the operation and maintenance of oil storage containers on CCAFS varies. A number of government agencies on the installation, including both host and tenant organizations, have owner or operator responsibilities for oil storage containers subject to this SPCC Plan. In addition, a number of these organizations rely on contracted support. The oil storage container inventory and the Site Specific SPCC Plan identify the organizations responsible for these containers.

(b) Except as identified in Section 1.e., Facilities Excluded from this SPCC Plan, all oil containers that have a capacity of 55 gallons or greater on CCAFS are included in this plan.

(c) Potential causes for a release of oil at CCAFS and JDMTA could include tank or line rupture, gasket failure, or human error, and would range from a slow leak (less than one gallon per minute) to a catastrophic tank failure up to the maximum capacity of each individual tank. The worst case discharge at CCAFS would be 10,000 gallons, which would occur at the Vehicle Gas Station [Tank identification 44528, 44529, 44530 and 44548]. It is unlikely that a release from this tank would travel offsite. Potential receiving navigable waters at CCAFS include the Banana River and the Atlantic Ocean. Potential receiving navigable waters at JDMTA include the Loxahatchee River.

h. Management of Oil-Filled Equipment.

(1) Transformers.

(a) Electrical transformers installed across CCAFS constitute the majority of oil-filled equipment on the installation. The current inventory of all transformers on the installation is maintained by the Base Operations Support Contractor. The infrastructure of transformers across the base is similar to that found in any small city.

In particular, the number and location of these transformers changes constantly in conjunction with new construction, facility closures, evolving mission requirements, and replacement of obsolete equipment.

(b) Transformers are maintained by the 45th Cape Engineering/Range Support

1-6

Base Operations Support Contractor. Assigned personnel are trained and skilled in spill response procedures, perform annual inspections, carry spill kits in their maintenance vehicles, and are on-call 24 hours per day, seven days per week for transformer maintenance or spill response.

(2) Hydraulic Systems. A number of facilities at CCAFS are equipped with hydraulic equipment (see the Site Specific SPCC Plans for further details). Table A1-3 identifies the buildings that have hydraulic systems with a tank capacity of 55 gallons or greater.

3. APPROACH.

a. Spill Prevention and Planning.

(1) This section outlines procedures for preventing spills of oil through regular surveillance and inspection of facilities and operations that have the potential to discharge oil. Each responsible owner or operator of oil storage tanks at CCAFS and JDMTA, including tenants and imbedded contractors, is responsible for implementing proper spill planning and prevention measures to minimize the potential for accidental releases of oil.

This section provides written procedures for the following aspects of spill prevention and planning:

(a) Maintaining inventories of locations and facilities that use or store oil.

(b) Performing operations in a manner that will minimize the potential for spills of oil.

(c) Conducting regular inspections of facilities and operations to facilitate the early detection of spills and leaks.

(2) A series of checklists were developed to assist responsible owners or operators at CCAFS and JDMTA in determining spill prevention and planning requirements, and performing inspections and associated reporting for spill prevention purposes. The inspection checklists are provided in Attachment 3 of this SPCC Plan.

(3) Spill prevention and response planning must identify the operations, equipment, and processes that have the potential to cause a spill. The spill prevention and planning process includes a detailed evaluation of the following, as applicable, for each facility or operation:

(a) ASTs.

(b) Oil transfer equipment (e.g., piping, valves, etc.).

(c) Oil containers (55 gallons or greater).

(d) Oil-filled processing equipment (e.g., transformers, elevators, hydraulic equipment).

(e) Oil loading, off-loading, and transportation operations.

(4) Routine inspections of equipment and operations are conducted at CCAFS.

Table 3-1 is a guide to aid in identifying inspection and reporting requirements for the operations listed above. Responsible owners or operators of oil storage containers should

3-2 reference Table 3-1 to determine the appropriate checklists to use when conducting inspections and the required frequency for inspections. The Site Specific SPCC Plan provides site-specific information that should be used when referencing Table 3-1;

however, responsible owners or operators must ensure that the site-specific information is kept current by occasionally surveying their facility for operational changes with respect to this SPCC Plan.

Notes:

b. Prevention of Spills from Storage Tanks, Containers, and Secondary Containment Structures. As required by 40 CFR 112.7 and 112.8, this section provides a description of the equipment and procedures in place to prevent oil spills from oil storage tanks and containers, oil-containing process equipment, and at oil fill and transfer locations.

(1) Drainage Control Diversionary Structures and Containment. A description of secondary containment and/or diversionary structures or equipment for each oil storage or handling unit at CCAFS is included in Section 2.0 of the Site Specific SPCC Plan.

The description for each secondary containment structure includes the type of containment, material of construction, and containment capacity.

(2) Bulk Storage Containers and Secondary Containment. This section contains SPCC requirements applicable to bulk storage containers as defined in Attachment 2 of this plan (includes 55-gallon drums, ASTs, and other containers used to store oil, but does not include oil-filled electrical, operating, manufacturing equipment, or mobile refuelers). As

3-3 required by 40 CFR 112.8(c)(2), all bulk storage containers have sized secondary containment capable of holding the entire capacity of the single largest container plus sufficient freeboard to contain precipitation. At CCAFS, a 24-hour, 25-year flood event average is nine inches.

(a) Container Compatibility with Its Contents. The oil storage containers at CCAFS are compatible with the material they contain. Oil storage tanks have adequate exterior coatings to prevent rust formation. Specific information on the construction material(s) of each storage container is provided in Section 2.0 of the Site Specific SPCC Plan.

(b) Diked Area Construction and Containment Volume for Storage Containers.

1 Bulk storage containers that are located within secondary containment structures that are large enough to contain the entire contents of the largest container in the containment structure while allowing for adequate freeboard to contain precipitation events. A description of the type of secondary containment, material of construction, and containment capacity for each tank or container is provided in Section 2.0 of the Site Specific SPCC Plan.

(c) Diked Area Inspection and Drainage of Rainwater.

1 At CCAFS some 55-gallon drums located within secondary containment structures are located outside. These structures are equipped with manually operated valves or pumps that are kept in the closed or off position. Accumulated precipitation is removed from diked and bermed areas by using a vacuum truck, using a sump pump, draining to grade, or other appropriate methods as described in Section 2.0 of the Site Specific SPCC Plan. Prior to removal, the water is visually inspected for the presence of oil (sheen or odor) and the appearance is documented using Table A3-1, Secondary Containment Drainage Log, located in Attachment 3 of this plan, or similar form.
