6. Review and Amendment Instructions.

a. Review Frequency and Conditions. This Spill Prevention, Controls and Countermeasure (SPCC) Plan will be reviewed every three years and amended as required. Other circumstances which will warrant a review and update are listed as follows:

(1) When facility changes occur that increase the potential for spills or change the

1-2 spill prevention and response procedures, methods and equipment.

(2) When the SPCC Plan fails or proves to be ineffective in the prevention of or response to a spill event.

(3) At the request of the EPA or state pollution control authorities.

(4) When changes occur in the On Scene Incident Coordinator (On Scene IC) or spill response team (SRT) or spill response equipment list.

(5) After enactment of, or amendment to, pertinent Federal, or state legislation, or changes in DOT or FAA policy. Particular attention should be given to changes in reportable spill quantities.

(6) After pertinent modifications of Federal, regional, and state contingency plans.

(7) After any changes in adjacent land and water use that would affect spill prevention and response considerations.

(8) At the request of the Aeronautical Center Environmental Network.

b. Content of Review. The Environmental Network will conduct annual reviews utilizing the same procedures used in the initial plan development of the document. The review will include detailed inspection of oil and hazardous substance sites and verification of all data generated during the initial plan development. When possible, a professional engineer will take part in these inspections.

c. Review Follow Up. The Environmental Network will be responsible for monitoring any corrective actions and amending the SPCC Plan when necessary. The review of the SPCC Plan and any resulting amendments or changes to the plan will be logged in the Record of Changes. If amendments or changes significantly affect the SPCC Plan, the plan must be recertified by a professional engineer.

7. Background. The EPA Oil Pollution Prevention Regulation (40 CFR Part 112) requires preparation and implementation of a SPCC Plan. The EPA, under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA), also requires that a hazardous waste spill prevention contingency plan be available for use. Furthermore, release reporting and response is also required under the provisions of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA). This SPCC Plan incorporates SPCC, RCRA, and CERCLA requirements together into a comprehensive document. The purpose of this plan is to ensure that proper oil, hazardous substances, and hazardous waste spill prevention actions are taken to minimize the chances of such materials from being released into air, soil, or groundwater or from entering the navigable waters of the United States or its adjoining shorelines and to provide for required notification of and response to those spills which do occur.

8. Definitions.

2-1

Chapter 2. Plan Implementation

1. Two Part Program. This plan will be implemented in a two-part program. The first part is the Spill Prevention, Control and Countermeasure Plan (SPCC Plan) taken to prevent and contain a spill.

This plan is described in Chapter 3. The second part is the Oil and Hazardous Substance Contingency Plan (OHSC Plan) which describes actions to be taken in the event of releases, accidents, and spills involving oils or hazardous substances. These include spill detection, reporting, containment, cleanup, and disposal procedures. This plan is described in Chapter 4.

2. SPCC Plan. The SPCC Plan portion of the document primarily pertains to spill prevention and includes a discussion of the major types of spill prevention procedures, methods, and equipment incorporated into Aeronautical Center facilities. Since spill prevention is an ongoing concern, this portion of the plan is implemented continuously.

3. OHSC Plan. The contingency plan portion of the document specifies procedures to be followed when responding to releases, accidents, and spills involving oils or hazardous substances. These include spill detection, reporting, containment, cleanup, and disposal procedures. The plan should be implemented in conjunction with the latest edition of Order AC 1900.12, Aeronautical Center Emergency Operations Plan, in the event that circumstances warrant implementation of the operations plan.

4. Spill Response. In the event of a spill of oil or a hazardous substance, concerned parties should refer directly to Chapter 4 and Appendix A for general response information and to Appendix B for site-specific information. This appendix provides relevant site descriptions including location, maximum spill quantity, probable spill route, and secondary containment. In addition, site-specific contingency plans for hazardous waste storage sites are found in Appendix C.

3-1

Chapter 3. Spill Prevention, Control and Countermeasure (SPCC) Plan

1. General. The purpose of the Spill Prevention Control and Countermeasure Plan (SPCC Plan) is to support the EPA and Oklahoma pollution control authorities by developing appropriate measures to upgrade existing oil, hazardous substance, and hazardous waste storage and handling facilities;

thereby reducing the potential damage from oil, hazardous substance, and hazardous waste spills.

Spill prevention, control and countermeasure procedures, methods, and equipment have been developed and implemented for all Aeronautical Center oil and hazardous substance storage and transfer areas. The general mechanisms of spill prevention that are practiced at the Center are briefly discussed below. The specific spill prevention mechanisms associated with each facility having a potential for a "reportable spill" are summarized in Appendix B.

2. Secondary Containment. Secondary containment is the physical containment or capture of a spill thus preventing or limiting its release to the environment. Examples include: dikes, curbs, oil/water separators, drip pans, and collection systems. Additional examples may include remote secondary containment such as floating booms and flow diversions utilizing basins, sumps, ponds, etc.

All 55 gallon and larger above-ground storage containers holding liquid chemical, petroleum products, wastes, or animal fats and greases, must be equipped with secondary containment sufficient to hold the entire contents of the largest container and sufficient freeboard to contain precipitation (Appendix B, Table B-5).

3. Visual Inspections. Visual inspections consist of touring or patrolling the potential spill site to detect spills, evidence of spills, or other conditions that could result in a spill (Appendix B, Table B-8).

These include routine inspections performed by the operating and supervisory personnel and detailed inspections performed by members of the Environmental Network, one of which shall be a registered professional engineer who can certify the plan (Appendix D). Routine inspections to be performed and reporting requirements are described in detail in Appendix E. In general, these inspections are as follows:

a. The Environmental and Safety Staff (AMP-100) will inspect the temporary (90 day) hazardous waste storage building at least weekly for leakage. AMP-100 will also conduct required inspections of underground storage tanks and above ground tanks as specified in the organization standard operating procedure for fuel storage tanks.

b. AMP-100 will visually inspect all bulk oil storage containers in excess of 55 gallons monthly for signs of deterioration, discharges or accumulation of oil inside diked areas in accordance with MMAC fuel storage tank visual inspection procedures. Each organization must also conduct monthly visual inspections and maintain inspection records. All other storage and operating facilities containing petroleum products less than 55 gallon and hazardous chemicals shall be inspected annually. At the end of the calendar year the inspection will include updating the organization’s hazardous material/petroleum product inventory using forms shown in Appendix E. Only end of year inspection forms will be turned in to AMP-100 by January 15th of the following year.

c. AMP-100 will conduct a detailed inspection every five years of all facilities and equipment used to store, handle, dispose of, or consume oil or other hazardous substances using the site inspection sheets shown in Appendix E. This information will be used to update the tables in

3-2

Appendix B and to develop a list of projects required to prevent the day-to-day loss of potential pollutants and to eliminate the potential for spills.

d. Records of inspections must be maintained for at least three years.

4. Preventive Maintenance. Preventive maintenance, as a part of the SPCC Plan, involves the periodic lubrication, adjustment, and replacement of worn parts in all equipment where equipment failure could result in a spill of oils or hazardous substances, or impede response efforts. This includes the implementation of all Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) and reoccurring maintenance programs (RMP) for the specific areas (Appendix B, Table B-9). AMP-100, in coordination with the Environmental Network, will annually review operating procedures for facilities or equipment that store, handle, or consume oil, hazardous substances, or hazardous waste. This review will ensure that procedures are designed to minimize the loss of potential pollutants in day-to-day operations and the potential for a spill, and to establish a method of maintaining records on the circumstances and corrective action taken for non-reportable spills. Unacceptable procedures will be referred back to the appropriate program office for revision.

5. Housekeeping. Good housekeeping is the practice of maintaining a clean orderly work environment; thereby reducing the possibility of accidental spills caused by mishandling of equipment and materials and facilitating the detection of spills and leaks (Appendix B, Table B-10).

6. Material Compatibility. Material compatibility refers to the compatibility of oil and hazardous substances with the materials of construction that store or transport them; compatibility of storage or transfer devices with their environment; and compatibility of different substances upon mixing (Appendix B, Table B-11).

7. Security. Security involves the deterrence of unauthorized, unknowing, or accidental entry of personnel, animals, or vehicles into potential spill areas when such entry could result in the damage or misuse of equipment containing or conveying oils or hazardous substances (Appendix B, Table B-12).

8. Monitoring. Monitoring entails the prevention of oil and hazardous substance spills by observing operational conditions that could indicate or result in a spill and early detection of existing spills by monitoring environmental conditions (Appendix B, Table B-13). Secondary or backup monitoring should be used where acute health hazards are involved.

9. Signs. All organizations shall post signs in any area where chemicals are used or stored giving directions to be followed should a spill occur. Each organization will be responsible for obtaining its signs. Appendix F shows an example sign.

10. Training. All organizations shall ensure that personnel handling oil (see definition) are trained in the operation and maintenance of equipment to prevent discharges; discharge procedure protocols;

applicable pollution control laws, rules and regulations; general facility operations and this SPCC Plan. These personnel shall be briefed annually to assure adequate understanding of the Aeronautical Center SPCC Plan. Response training for spill response personnel is addressed in Chapter 4.

4-1

Chapter 4. Oil and Hazardous Substance Contingency Plan

1. General. This plan supports the National Oil and Hazardous Substances Pollution Contingency Plan (OHSC Plan) and Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) requirements for a hazardous waste contingency plan. It designates the procedures to be followed in the event of releases, accidents, and spills involving oils or hazardous substances and the organizations, personnel and equipment responsible for carrying out the response functions.

Response actions will vary because of the diversity of materials stored at the Aeronautical Center and the variable severity of the hazards presented in the event of a spill. General procedures are outlined in the following sections. These procedures should be reviewed and, if necessary, updated prior to adopting courses of action in a particular situation. Tables B-1 and B-3 in Appendix B and maps in Appendix J should be consulted with regard to the reportable spill quantities, probable spill routes, and contingency actions. If a site-specific contingency plan exists for the spill area in question, it will be noted in the contingency action column of Appendix B, Table B-1, and should be referred to in Appendix C. It should be noted that this plan deals primarily with solid and liquid phase pollutants.

Releases of gaseous substances, because of their rapid dispersion and often highly hazardous nature should be dealt with in accordance with the latest edition of Order AC 1900.12, Aeronautical Center Emergency Operations Plan.

2. Four Phase Response. In general, response to a pollution spill at the Aeronautical Center will be performed according to a four phase program. Phase I designates the initial spill response procedures to be followed by any individual discovering a spill or potential spill of oil or hazardous substances. It also designates the procedures to be followed by various organizations within the Office of Facility Management (AMP) in providing rapid notification of the spill to the proper on-Center personnel and organizations. Phase II then designates the general response actions to be taken by the Incident Coordinator in containing, cleanup, and restoring the spill site. Phase III pertains to recovery of damages and enforcement. Phase IV describes training to be conducted.

3. Phase I – Spill Discovery and Initial Notification. This phase covers actions taken to discover, locate, characterize, and report the spill.

a. Any person recognizing an oil, hazardous substance, or a suspected or unknown material spill shall immediately:

(1) Activate emergency alarm system, if any.

(2) Evacuate the area, if warranted by the type of spill.

(3) Make sure that all employees shut down their operations and secure their equipment, if it can be done safely.

(4) Call security, extension 4-3444, (off-Center call (405) 954-3444), and give the type, location, size of spill, and name of individual reporting)

(5) Inform the supervisor, section foreman, or manager.

4-2

(6) Contain the spill, if it can be done safely.

(7) Perform cleanup operations within the organization's capabilities and assist the fire department upon its arrival.

(8) Ensure that an employee roll call is conducted to discover whether any personnel are trapped in the affected area.

b. Security guard dispatcher will notify:

(1) AMP-300 Central Control Monitoring Station (CCMS)

(2) If medical assistance is needed, Emergency Medical Services Authority (EMSA).

(3) In the event of fire or explosion, the Oklahoma City Fire Department.

c. CCMS or the Security Dispatcher will notify:

(1) Environmental Coordinator, Environmental and Safety Staff, AMP-100.

(2) Division Manager AMP-300

d. The Facilities Program Director, or designee, AMP-1, upon determining that the Aeronautical Center Emergency Operations Plan must be implemented or that outside assistance is required, will provide authorization to notify the following:

(1) Director, Aeronautical Center. The director will be notified as needed.

(2) Public Affairs Staff, AMC-5 as needed.

(3) Off-Site spill response organizations, as appropriate (Appendix L).

4. Phase II – Spill Response Actions.

a. In the event of a spill of oil or hazardous substances, the On Scene IC in coordination with the Facilities Program Director, will be responsible for directing and coordinating all spill response actions. The On Scene IC or his/her designee will collect and maintain the incident Spill Form detailing all actions taken during the course of the spill response. The form to be used, AC1050-3, is shown in Appendix G.

b. Spill response actions under the responsibility of the On Scene IC are as follows:

(1) Activate or authorize action of appropriate members of the Spill Response Team (SRT) (Appendix A) based on information relayed during initial notification or

4-3 information provided by the Environmental Coordinator (AMP-100), and immediately investigate the reported spill.

(2) Determine the source, type, and approximate quantity of spilled substance and take appropriate action to stop the source of the spill if it is still occurring.

(3) Direct the Environmental Coordinator (AMP-100) to take samples to determine the chemical nature, pollutant concentration, and extent of the spill as required for response actions and documentation.

(4) Evaluate the magnitude and severity of the threat to public health, welfare, and natural resources. Safety Data Sheets (SDS’s) available through the organization representative or AMP-100 should be utilized as required to determine potential health, air, and pollution effects associated with the spilled material.

(5) Take appropriate safety precautions to protect response personnel and any additional personnel located in close proximity to the probable spill route.

Contract security guard personnel will be utilized for implementing evacuation or traffic control measures.

(6) Determine the party responsible for the spill, if other than the FAA. The responsible party should be informed of the spill and their response action evaluated by the facility On Scene IC. If their response actions are inadequate in the judgment of the On Scene IC, they should first be informed of their financial liability, and then if their spill response actions remain inadequate, the On Scene IC should assume control of the spill response. In all response actions involving parties other than the FAA, the Aeronautical Center Counsel’s office shall be informed. If a contractor is involved with a spill, the contracting office should be notified.

(7) Initiate spill containment procedures. The primary concern is to confine spills as close to their source as practical and, if at all possible, prevent spills from leaving Aeronautical Center property. In accomplishing this task, the On Scene IC should refer to the following sources of information contained in this document:

(a) Appendix B for maximum potential spill quantities, available secondary containment, probable spill routes, and general contingency actions.

(b) Appendix C for site-specific contingency plans when the existence of such a plan is stated under "Contingency Action" in Appendix B.

(c) Appendix H for a list of facility oil/water separators.

(d) Appendix I for spill response equipment inventory and location of equipment.

4-4

(e) Appendix J for maps to assist in the determination of probable spill routes, access to the spill sites, location of remote secondary containment, and spill containment areas.

(f) Safety Data Sheets (SDSs) available through the respective organizational representative for the health hazards, fire hazards, pollution potential, physical and chemical properties of the spilled material.

(g) Appendix K for a list of spill response contractors and their capabilities.

(8) Determine if a reportable spill has occurred. Appendix B includes reportable spill criteria for the substances identified on-Center as potential reportable spill substances.

(9) Telephonic notification of the following Federal and state agencies must be made promptly following determination of a reportable spill (also see Appendix L).

(a) National Response Center (NRC), (800) 424-8802 or www.nrc.uscg.mil).

(b) Oklahoma Department of Environmental Quality, (800) 522-0206 (for hazardous waste spills, a written statement is also required within 15 days).

(c) Oklahoma Corporation Commission (405) 521-4683 (petroleum product spills relative to underground storage tank management greater than 25 gallons).

(d) Oklahoma City Water Department (405) 297-3334 (for spills into the sanitary sewer system (24 hours)).

(10) Initiate cleanup actions. Pollutants shall be collected to the maximum extent possible.

(a) Immediately after an emergency, arrangements shall be made for treatment, storage, or disposal of recovered waste, contaminated soil, surface water, or any other contaminated material. If contractor assistance is required to implement treatment, storage, or disposal decisions, the contracting officer will be contacted.

(b) Petroleum, hazardous pollutants and absorbent material shall be placed in

55-gallon drums (40 CFR 172.101 or 102), labeled and turned in to the Environmental Coordinator (AMP-100) for eventual disposal in accordance with RCRA requirements. Organizations shall furnish AMP- 100 a SDS on each spilled substance they are turning in. This should be done whether the substance is in a raw state or has been mixed with absorbent or similar material.

4-5

(c) Incompatible waste shall not be treated, stored, or located in affected areas until cleanup procedures are completed and approved by the On Scene IC.

(d) Hazardous materials shall not be kept in waste piles or surface impoundments at the Aeronautical Center.

(11) Officially classify oil spills using the following definitions:

(a) Minor discharge. Minor discharge means a discharge to the inland waters of less than 1,000 gallons of oil; or a discharge to the coastal waters of less than 10,000 gallons of oil.

(b) Medium discharge. Medium discharge means a discharge of 1,000 to

10,000 gallons of oil to the inland waters; or a discharge of 10,000 gallons to 100,000 gallons of oil to the coastal waters.

(c) Major discharge. Major discharge means a discharge of more than

10,000 gallons of oil to the inland waters; or more than 100,000 gallons of oil to the coastal waters

(d) Reclassification of Minor Spills. A spill normally classified as minor, will be reclassified as medium or major depending upon the degree of impact, if it occurs in or endangers critical water areas; generates critical public concern; becomes the focus of an enforcement action; or is a threat to the public health or welfare.

(12) On completion of cleanup operations, a "close-up" report will be submitted.

This report must be submitted in letter format within 30 days to the Oklahoma Department of Environmental Quality. In addition, the report must be submitted within 60 days of a "major" oil spill to the National Response Team and the Regional Response Team; within 60 days of a 1,000 gallon oil spill or two (2) reportable oil spills in 12 months to the Regional Administrator of EPA; within 60 days of a reportable spill of Clean Water Act Section 311 substances to the Regional EPA Enforcement Division Director; and within 15 days of a spill of hazardous waste requiring the implementation of the SPCC Plan to the Regional Administrator of EPA.

5. Phase III – Recovery of Damages and Enforcement. This phase includes the recovery for damage done to Federal property and the collection of scientific and technical information.

a. For FAA caused spills, the Aeronautical Center is responsible for all recovery, cleanup, and restoration costs for spills caused by the Aeronautical Center. If the cleanup is accomplished by another Federal agency, the Center is responsible for reimbursing that agency.

b. For Non-FAA caused spills, where the Aeronautical Center furnishes assistance to the

Regional Response Team (RRT), the Center would furnish assistance, providing mission capability is not degraded. Reimbursement for expenditures would be sought from the organization requesting the assistance.

c. Enforcement. The FAA will refer any enforcement actions to the appropriate RRT for their determination of responsibility and requirement for legal actions.

d. Scientific and Technical Information. All data and samples collected during a spill response will be assembled by the On Scene IC and made available to the scientific community or to the RRT for use in enforcement or legal actions.

6. Phase IV – Training. This phase includes training of spill response personnel.

a. The Manager of AMP-100 will ensure the training of personnel within his/her division who serve as On Scene IC and alternate or perform other spill response duties.

b. All organizations will assure that personnel within storage areas of sections/units where potential for chemical emergencies are possible, are aware of this Plan and are prepared to act in accordance with this Plan.

c. The Environmental and Safety Staff (AMP-100) will appoint an exercise team to be responsible for conducting a spill exercise at least annually. An actual spill may be substituted for an exercise.

a. General. The On Scene IC is the individual assigned the responsibility for directing and coordinating all spill response actions. The On Scene IC, in coordination with the Facilities Program Director, will have the authority to utilize the expertise and resources of the SRT in determining and performing response actions. Deployment of the SRT will be activated only if called by the On Scene IC or his/her designee. The deployment of the SRT is effected to provide a coordinated response to contain, control, recover, and restore the environment from all spills. Appendix A summarizes all Center telephone numbers used for contacting these organizations. Off-duty telephone numbers are maintained by the primary and alternate On Scene IC's and Center Security. Appendix L summarizes all off-Center response organizations along with their telephone numbers. The personnel assigned to the SRT and their designated responsibilities are discussed in the following paragraphs.

b. AMP-1 Facilities Program Director will:

(1) Act as primary coordinator responsible for directing and coordinating all spill response actions (see paragraph 4.a. of this chapter).

(2) Within his/her capability, provide personnel and equipment (through AMP-100 or AMP-300) for spill containment, control, and cleanup due to spills of oils and hazardous substances that exceed the capability of the facility organization responsible for the spill.

(3) Approve supply and equipment requests relative to this plan.

(4) Ensure AMP representatives of the SRT are properly trained and equipped.

(5) Take actions necessary to minimize or eliminate potential for a spill.

(6) Direct On Scene IC to take appropriate spill response actions.

c. The AMP-100 Manager will:

(1) Serve as first alternate Coordinator.

(2) Provide an environmental engineer/planner to furnish technical expertise relative to pollution control techniques.

(3) Provide technical services relative to support of this plan, including assisting in determining the extent of contamination and whether the area is safe for personnel to return to their work stations.

(4) Maintain equipment listing of defueling trucks, absorbent materials, containment booms, earthmoving equipment, etc.

4-9

d. On- Scene Incident Coordinator will:

(1) Identify proper course of actions including equipment, personnel and support to safely respond to spills.

(2) Secure the area and prevent unauthorized personnel from entering.

e. The AMP-300 Manager will:

(1) Determine support capabilities for spill containment, control, and cleanup as requested.

(2) Be responsible for shutting off gas and electricity and building heating and air conditioning (HVAC) in an emergency and restore service when conditions allow.

f. Contract security guard personnel will:

(1) Make the telephonic notifications indicated in paragraph 3.b. of this chapter.

(2) Complete AC Form 1050-3, Spill Report Form, (Appendix G) and forward a copy of the Report to the environmental coordinator, AMP-100.

(3) Provide assistance in support of this plan to:

(a) Assist the fire department as needed.

(b) Cordon the area and control personnel movement as necessary.

g. The Central Control Monitoring Station AMP 300 will:

(1) Make the notifications indicated in paragraph 3.c. of this chapter.

(2) Receive status reports from the On Scene IC as appropriate.

h. The AMP-100 Environmental and Safety Staff will:

(1) Receive written reports from security personnel within two (2) working days of incident.

(2) Assist management with conducting inspections, as necessary, for incidents involving spills.

(3) Serve as the hazardous waste collection/disposal organization for the Aeronautical Center.

4-10

(4) Determine when a material is to be classified as a hazardous waste.

(5) Ensure that the site-specific contingency plan for hazardous wastes stored in the

Hazardous Waste Storage Building (Appendix C) is kept up-to-date and posted.

i. Office of Human Resource Management will receive information from appropriate divisions in AMP facility services who will take appropriate action to record casualty data, notify next-of-kin, and render assistance to families of any casualties.

j. Public Affairs Staff will receive information from AMP-300 if any buildings are evacuated, or if there are any treatable injuries due to the spill/accident. It will determine what information releases, if any, are to be made to the public.

k. Off-Center Organizations. Since the Aeronautical Center has no hazardous material response team, it currently must rely on the Will Rogers Airport Fire Department and the Oklahoma City Fire Department to provide first responder support in the event of a spill or release resulting in or which may result in fire, explosion, or serious injury. In addition, the Aeronautical Center has made arrangements for assistance in emergency situations with the following organizations: Integris Southwest Medical Center, Oklahoma City Police Department, and Department of Airports, Will Rogers World Airport. A copy of the SPCC Plan will be made available to each organization as needed. The Oklahoma City Fire Department visits the site periodically to review Aeronautical Center operations.

l. Some other significant off-Center spill response resources that can be incorporated into the SRT, as needed, are discussed in the paragraphs below. A current listing of telephone numbers to be used to contact these organizations is presented in Appendix L.
