SPCC Plan.docx

PLAN SUMMARY

1. Purpose

a. This Spill Prevention, Control and Countermeasures Plan (SPCC Plan) has been prepared in accordance with the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 40, Chapter I, Part 112 (40 CFR 112), Oil Pollution Prevention. It describes the policies and procedures that will be implemented at Vance Air Force Base (AFB) and Kegelman Auxiliary Air Field (AAF) to prevent the discharge of harmful quantities of oil; in any kind or form, into the navigable waters of the United States.

b. Specifically, this plan details the following:

(1) Operating procedures that will be implemented on Vance AFB to prevent the unauthorized discharge of oil from storage facilities and oil-filled equipment.

(2) Control measures that must be installed to preclude contamination of the environment due to the accidental discharge of oil.

(3) Countermeasures that will be employed to contain and mitigate an accidental release of oil into surface waters.

c. For purposes of this SPCC Plan, the operable definition of facility encompasses all regulated oil storage tanks and oil-filled equipment within the boundaries of Vance AFB and Kegelman AAF that are owned/operated by the U.S. Air Force. This SPCC Plan specifically does not include such tanks and equipment owned and operated by non-DOD agencies or authorities. In particular, the operable definition of facility for purposes of this SPCC Plan excludes the six areas leased by Vance AFB from the City of Enid, Oklahoma and that are subleased to Crawley Petroleum Corporation for non-military use. Per the Federal Register, Volume 73, Number 235, page 74245, dated 5 December 2008, this definition of facility determines applicability for both SPCC Plan and Facility Response Plan (FRP) purposes.

d. This SPCC Plan supersedes the Vance AFB Oil and Hazardous Substance Spill Prevention and Response Plan dated November 2011.

2. Security Instructions

a. This SPCC Plan is “FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY” (FOUO) and has not been authorized for unrestricted distribution to the “public”. All personnel whose activities are regulated by this plan and therefore need access to this plan are restricted from releasing information contained herein to the public. The information contained in this document may be distributed in accordance with Department of Defense (DOD) Regulation 5400.7/Air Force Supplement, 22 July 1999, DOD Force Freedom of Information Act. Operational Security (OPSEC) and Communication Security (COMSEC) are incorporated into this plan and must be executed by anyone using the plan.

b.

ii

c. Reproduction of this document in whole or in part is authorized only to assist applicable base and tenant organizations in the development of supporting directives or operating instructions.

3. Legal Considerations

a. This SPCC Plan is based on federal, Oklahoma, and local regulations and Air Force directives available at the time of preparation, and it is subject to modification as those requirements change. Accordingly, the 71st Installation Support Squadron/Civil Engineer (71 ISS/CE) will review this SPCC Plan annually and upon notification of changed requirements and update it as required to ensure its currency, effectiveness, and legal sufficiency.

b. If there is a conflict between this SPCC Plan and regulatory requirements, the regulatory requirements will take precedence. This plan may direct Vance AFB and Kegelman AAF management requirements that are more stringent than associated regulations.

c. This SPCC Plan is applicable to all DOD, other federal agencies, and supporting government contractors and their subcontractors that handle oil as the term is defined in 40 CFR 112, on Vance AFB and/or on Kegelman AAF in quantities exceeding the regulatory thresholds of 40 CFR 112. This SPCC Plan does not encompass tanks and equipment located on leased or subleased property that are owned and operated by non-DoD agencies or authorities.

d. In1960, Vance AFB was selected by the U.S. Air Force as part of an extended experiment in contract services. Under this initiative, civilian contractors furnish a significant amount of the support, services, and assets normally provided by base agencies. Accordingly, many of the requirements posed by this SPCC Plan are actually implemented by civilian contractors operating onsite. However, this SPCC Plan is not to be construed as a contract directive. The responsible base agencies will ensure this plan is implemented by appropriate contractual documents and direction issued by government Contracting Officers. Specifically, responsible government offices must include this SPCC Plan’s requirements in solicitations, requirements packages, and contracts entailing the handling and management of oil and any related storage tank, container, and item of oil-containing equipment having a capacity of 55 gallons or more. Relative to the proper execution of this SPCC Plan, it must be understood that responsibilities required by law or regulation cannot be changed by contract and that the Air Force may be liable for a contractor’s failure to comply with applicable laws and regulations.

INTRODUCTION

1. Background

a. 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 of 1990 (OPA). 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 United States.

b. As the administering agency, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) mandates the preparation of a Spill Prevention, Control and Countermeasures (SPCC) Plan per 40 CFR 112 by any facility that (1) by virtue of its location, could reasonably be expected to discharge oil in harmful quantities into the navigable waters of the United States and/or onto adjoining shorelines and (2) contains aboveground oil storage and oil-containing systems having a capacity greater than 1,320 gallons individually or in the aggregate. For purposes of determining this threshold quantity, only the volume of containers having a capacity of 55 gallons or more is included.

c. Accordingly, an SPCC Plan must be prepared for Vance Air Force Base (AFB) and Kegelman Auxiliary Air Field (AAF) because the installations each encompass an aboveground oil storage capacity exceeding the 1,320-gallon threshold.

d. The EPA also requires the preparation of an SPCC Plan by any facility containing underground oil storage systems that (1) are not subject to regulation either under 40 CFR 280, Technical Standards and Corrective Action Requirements for Owners and Operators of Underground Storage Tanks, or an EPA approved state program per 40 CFR 282, Approved Underground Storage Tank Programs, and (2) have an aggregate capacity in excess of 42,000 gallons. Per 40 CFR 282.86, Oklahoma State-Administered Program, the underground storage tanks at Vance AFB used to store POL commodities are subject to the EPA approved program detailed in Title 165 of the Oklahoma Administrative Code (165 OAC), Chapter 25, Underground Storage Tanks. Accordingly, the underground storage tanks at Vance AFB are not subject to the provisions of 40 CFR 112 and are therefore not covered in this SPCC Plan.

e. Implementation of this SPCC Plan on Vance AFB and Kegelman AAF is the responsibility of the individual Government agencies that own or operate oil storage tanks and/or oil-containing equipment subject to the provisions 40 CFR 112. The 71 ISS/CE is the office of primary responsibility for the preparation and update of this SPCC Plan and for monitoring conformance with its provisions across both installations. Any non-conformance will be promptly brought to the attention of the Environmental, Safety, and Occupational Health (ESOH) Council.

2. Regulatory Requirements

a. Federal Requirements and Guidance

(1) 40 CFR 112, Oil Pollution Prevention. This portion of the CFR codifies requirements set forth in the Federal Water Pollution Control Act (FWPCA) of 1992 amending the Clean Water Act (CWA) of 1972 and details requirements for an SPCC Plan.

(a) Applicability

1. The regulation applies to facilities that (1) by virtue of their location, could reasonably be expected to discharge oil in harmful quantities into the navigable waters of the United States; (2) contain aboveground oil storage and oil-containing systems having a capacity greater than 1,320 gallons individually or in the aggregate, and/or (3) have an underground oil storage capacity of greater than 42,000 gallons.

2. For purposes of determining threshold quantities, only the volume of containers having a capacity greater than 55 gallons is included.

3. Per the Federal Register, FRL-8746-1, Volume 73, Number 229, 26 November 2008, 71941-71944, Oil Pollution Prevention; Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasure Rule; Revisions to the Regulatory Definition of “Navigable Waters,” navigable waters of the United States include the following:

· All navigable waters of the United States as defined in judicial decisions prior to passage of the 1972 Amendments to the Federal Water Pollution Control Act and tributaries of such waters.

· Interstate waters.

· Intrastate lakes, rivers, and streams which are utilized by interstate travelers for recreational or other purposes.

· Intrastate lakes, rivers, and streams from which fish or shellfish are taken and sold in interstate commerce.

4. In determining whether a facility could reasonably be expected to discharge oil in harmful quantities into the navigable waters of the United States or adjoining shorelines, the EPA does not consider man-made features such as dikes, equipment, or other structures intended to contain or divert a spill from reaching navigable waters or adjoining shorelines.

5. Underground oil storage tanks subject to all of the technical requirements of 40 CFR 280 or an EPA-approved state program per 40 CFR 281 are excluded from the calculation of the 42,000-gallon underground threshold. In accordance with 40 CFR 282.86, the State of Oklahoma has been approved by the EPA to 6.

administer and enforce an underground storage tank program in lieu of the federal program under Subtitle I of the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act of 1976 (RCRA). Accordingly, underground storage tanks at Vance AFB are excluded from the calculation of the 42,000 gallon underground threshold and are not subject to 40 CFR 112 requirements for an SPCC Plan.

7. Permanently closed tanks are excluded from the calculation of both aboveground and underground thresholds.

(b) SPCC Plan

1. Paragraph 40 CFR 112.7 requires a written SPCC Plan be prepared that is consistent with good engineering practice and that is approved by a level of management having the authority to commit the resources necessary to fully implement it.

2. A complete copy of the SPCC Plan must be maintained by the responsible owner/operator at each regulated facility attended at least four hours each workday or at the nearest associated field office if not so attended.

(c) Mandated Actions

1. Per 40 CFR 112, the EPA requires certain mandatory actions in addition to the preparation of an SPCC Plan. The SPCC rule explicitly allows for deviations from most of the substantive requirements of 40 CFR 112; except from the provisions for secondary containment and recordkeeping, provided that the reasons for nonconformity are explained and equivalent environmental protection is provided (see 40 CFR 112.7(a)(2)).

2. The following clarifications and guidance, which are applicable to Vance AFB have been issued by the EPA regarding the requirements of 40 CFR 112:

a. In the memorandum from the Office of Solid Waste and Emergency Response (OSWER) 9360.8-38, Use of Alternative Secondary Containment Measures at Facilities Regulated under the Oil Pollution Prevention Regulation (40 CFR Part 112), the EPA noted that shop-built, double-walled ASTs, regardless of size, satisfy secondary containment requirements for bulk oil storage when the following protective measures are in effect:

· The inner tank must be an Underwriters’ Laboratories (UL) listed steel tank.

· The outer wall is constructed in accordance with nationally accepted industry standards.

· Overfill prevention measures are implemented.

· All product transfers are constantly monitored.

b. Per EPA 550-B-05-001, SPCC Guidance for Regional Inspectors, the EPA notes that appropriate secondary containment methods may vary depending on the purpose for which the container is being used at a given time. Specifically, when mobile containers are involved in activities such as normal fuel transfer or on-site movement or are in “standby” mode in preparation for such activities, the secondary containment requirement may be satisfied per the general secondary containment provisions of 40 CFR 112.7(c). These include active containment measures such as the use of sorbents, booms, or response actions that prevent an oil discharge from reaching navigable waters. However, mobile containers that are parked while not in use must be afforded the more stringent secondary containment provisions of 40 CFR 112.8(c)(11).

c. Per 40 CFR 112.8(c)(6), bulk oil storage container integrity must be confirmed by a regimen of visual inspections combined with a regular schedule of testing such as hydrostatic testing, radiographic testing, ultrasonic testing, acoustical emissions testing, or another system of non-destructive shell testing. In a letter to the Petroleum Marketers Association of America, the EPA clarified that frequent visual inspections alone will provide “environmentally equivalent protection” for well designed, shop-built tanks conforming to the following criteria:

· Shell capacity of the tank is less than 30,000 gallons.

· Tank is elevated by means of structural supports, saddles, or some form of grillage made of materials that do not accelerate corrosion such that the tank is not in contact with the ground.

· All sides of the tank, including the bottom, are visible during inspection.

· Visual inspection must encompass the outside of the tank for signs of deterioration, discharges of oil, or accumulation of oil inside diked areas.

· Visual inspection must also encompass tank supports and foundations.

· Records must be maintained of such inspections.

The text of the Environmental Protection Agency’s letter to the Petroleum Marketers Association of America can be referenced at http://www.epa.gov/OEM/docs/oil/spcc/guidance/H_DanielGilligan_PMAA.pdf.

(2) 40 CFR 110, Discharge of Oil. This part of the CFR defines key terminology pursuant to the Federal Water Pollution Control Act, as amended; also known as the (3) Clean Water Act, as it relates to prohibited discharges of oil. In particular, it establishes notification requirements for discharges of oil of such quantity that may be harmful to public health or welfare or to the environment.

(4) 40 CFR 279, Standards for the Management of Used Oil

(a) This EPA regulation implements specific standards relating to the management and storage of used oil. In particular, 40 CFR 279.22, Used Oil Storage, requires that used oil may only be stored in tanks subject to the provisions of 40 CFR 265 (see below) or 264. Both of these latter regulations pose similar requirements for a documented inspection of the storage tank each operating day. Additionally, the storage of used oil is also subject to the provisions of 40 CFR 112 (see above).

(b) Tanks used to store used oil do not need to be RCRA permitted. However, the tanks must be free of any evidence of leakage and they must be maintained in "good condition" with no severe rusting, apparent structural defects, or deterioration.

(5) 40 CFR 265, Interim Status Standards for Owners and Operators of Hazardous Waste Treatment, Storage, and Disposal Facilities. This regulation, which applies to facilities that accumulate hazardous waste for no more than 90 days, implements requirements relating to hazardous waste storage tanks. Per 40 CFR 279, these requirements also apply to tanks used to store used oil.

(6) EPA 550-B-05-001, SPCC Guidance for Regional Inspectors. While the associated disclaimer in this guidance document emphasizes that it does not itself constitute a regulation, this extensive reference substantively clarifies the intent of the EPA regarding many provisions of 40 CFR 112 (see above) and even suggests various compliance strategies.

b. Oklahoma Requirements. Oklahoma requirements relating to the management of aboveground oil storage tanks and the preparation of a spill prevention, control and countermeasures plan is codified in the Oklahoma Administrative Code, Title 165 (165 OAC), Chapter 26, Aboveground Storage Tanks. It should be noted that conformance with the provisions of 40 CFR 112 will substantively satisfy the intent of Oklahoma regulations as they apply to the management of bulk oil storage tanks and oil-filled equipment.

3. DOD/Air Force Requirements and Guidance

a. UFC 3-460-03F, Operation and Maintenance: Maintenance of Petroleum Systems. This United Facilities Criteria reference, which was developed by the Air Force Civil Engineer Support Agency to implement Air Force Policy Directive (AFPD) 32-10, Installations and Facilities, provides guidance and procedures on maintaining permanently installed Air Force owned, leased, or controlled petroleum storage and dispensing systems. This reference also supplements manufacturer’s instructions on specific equipment and applies to all Air Force systems and activities for which the Base Civil Engineer has maintenance responsibility.

b. AFI 32-7044, Storage Tank Compliance. This instruction provides Air Force installations with a framework for complying with regulatory requirements applicable to storage tanks used to store oil that does not otherwise constitute a hazardous waste. The following provisions of Air Force Instruction (AFI) 32-7044 pertain to this plan and assign specific roles and responsibilities relating to the management, inspection, and testing of aboveground storage tanks:

(1) Air Force agencies that own/operate aboveground, oil storage tanks must fully comply with the requirements of 40 CFR 112 and related state programs (see above).

(2) Air Force agencies that own/operate aboveground storage tanks containing used oil must also comply with the provisions of 40 CFR 279 (see above).

(3) The 71 ISS/CE is required to maintain a comprehensive list of all storage tank system locations and physical characteristics.

(4) Tenant organizations on Air Force installations that own and/or operate an aboveground storage tank are responsible for ensuring the tank complies with applicable federal, state, and local regulations to include required tank inspections, integrity testing, and associated recordkeeping.

(5) The frequency of regular tank integrity testing must take into account tank size and design and be consistent with associated industry standards. Tanks must also be integrity tested whenever material repairs are made.

(6) Consistent with good engineering practice, owners/operators of shop-built aboveground storage tanks that are smaller than 30,000 gallons and do not come in contact with the ground; so that all sides are visible, may use monthly visual inspections to satisfy integrity testing requirements.

(7) Owners/operators of shop-built, aboveground storage tanks that are in contact with the ground are generally required to perform both periodic visual inspections and a form of non-destructive shell integrity testing.

(8) Organizational tank custodians monitor tanks and associated piping for leaks. The monitoring will include recurring inspections and documentation of inspections in Storage Tank Accounting and Reporting (STAR).

c. T.O. 37-1-1, General Operation and Inspection of Installed Fuel Storage and Dispensing Systems. This technical order (T.O.) provides policies and guidance for fuels management personnel relating to the operation, inspection, and operator maintenance of permanently installed fuel facilities under the control of the Base Fuels Management Team. Per AFI 23204, this technical order is also applicable to the operation and inspection of organizational fuel tanks. It is to be used in conjunction with other existing directives governing fuel system operations and maintenance requirements; however, this technical order will take precedence where there is a conflict with other publications.

d. AFI 23-201, Fuels Management. This instruction provides managers at all Air Force activities with policy and procedures for fuels operations. Specifically, AFI 23-201 stipulates the organization and responsibilities of the Fuels Management Team and the duties and responsibilities of organizations interacting with the Fuels Management Team. This instruction mandates compliance with environmental requirements including spill prevention/containment and leak detection and specifies training requirements for fuels personnel.

e. AFI 23-204, Organizational Fuel Tanks. The Air Force stores bulk petroleum products in organizational tanks when operational inconvenience and/or impracticalities make it difficult to obtain fuel from centralized base fuel facilities. This instruction provides guidelines and procedures for managing and operating organizational fuel tanks and is applicable to every host and tenant agency that owns/operates such tanks. Specific requirements detailed in this instruction which are pertinent to this SPCC Plan include the following:

(1) The respective commanders of organizations that own/operate bulk petroleum storage tanks must oversee the inspection, operator maintenance, and surveillance of these tanks.

(2) Organizational tank custodians will perform minor maintenance and document all inspections on Air Force Technical Order (AFTO) Form 39 per T.O. 37-1-1 (see above).

(3) The Base Civil Engineer must ensure new aboveground organizational fuel tanks comply with the requirements of 40 CFR 112 and AFI 32-7044 (see above).

(4) The Base Civil Engineer function is responsible for accomplishing the following:

(a) Maintaining a list of all supported organizational tanks to include owning organization, tank location and type, product stored, and tank capacity.

(b) Providing organizational tank custodians with training relating to tank inspection and maintenance requirements.

(c) Providing tank custodians with technical guidelines to ensure tanks are operated in compliance with federal, state, and local regulations. These guidelines must encompass requirements for periodic tank inspections and integrity testing per 40 CFR 112, 279, and 265; T.O. 37-1-1; and relevant industry standards (see below).

f. AFI 32-1054, Corrosion Control. This instruction provides guidance on the implementation of a corrosion control program for storage tanks to prevent notices of violation due to corrosion. In particular, this instruction specifically mandates both cathodic protection and protective coatings for buried metal piping that carries a flammable product.

g. Military Standard (MILSTD)-161G, Identification Methods for Petroleum Products Systems Including Hydrocarbon Missile Fuels. This standard establishes a uniform color scheme for the identification of liquid petroleum products in DOD bulk storage tanks and associated piping systems to promote safety and facilitate emergency response. Specifically, the eight groups of hydrocarbon fuels; aviation gasoline, automotive gasoline, jet fuels, distillates, heavy fuel (black) oils, lubricating oils, thermally stable jet fuels, and missile fuels, are assigned one or more yellow bands in a distinctive and conspicuous pattern as a visual aid to supplement written identification. Black and white are assigned “without significant meaning” for general use. However, under no circumstances will colors other than yellow for “warning” and black and white for “identification” be assigned to bulk storage tanks and associated piping systems containing petroleum products. Red is assigned exclusively for fire protection equipment and materials.

4. Industry Standards

a. STI SP001, Standard for the Inspection of Aboveground Storage Tanks. This widely used Steel Tank Institute (STI) standard provides inspection and evaluation criteria for determining the suitability of aboveground storage tanks for continued service until the next scheduled inspection. This standard is particularly applicable to the inspection of shop-built tanks operating at approximately atmospheric pressure and containing stable, flammable, and combustible liquids having a specific gravity of less than 1.0. Depending on whether a tank is configured with spill control and/or a continuous release detection method, this standard prescribes a regimen of external inspections by qualified tank owner/operator personnel, formal external inspections by certified inspectors, formal internal inspections by certified inspectors, and non-destructive tank shell integrity testing. Owners/operators of aboveground, shop-built, oil storage tanks on Vance AFB and Kegelman AAF will comply with the tank inspection regimen prescribed by both STI SP001 and T.O. 37-1-1 (see above).

b. API Standard 653, Tank Inspection, Repair, Alteration, and Reconstruction. This American Petroleum Institute (API) Standard provides guidance for the inspection, repair, alteration, and reconstruction of field-constructed steel storage tanks used in the petroleum and chemical industries. Specifically, API Standard 653 provides minimum requirements for maintaining the integrity of riveted, non-refrigerated, atmospheric pressure, field-constructed tanks after they have been placed in service. The scope of this standard is focused on the tank foundation, bottom, shell, structure, roof, attached appurtenances, and nozzles. Owners/operators of field-constructed oil storage tanks on Vance AFB will comply with the tank inspection regimen prescribed by both API Standard 653 and T.O. 37-1-1 (see above).

c. NFPA 30, Flammable and Combustible Liquids Code. Per AFI 32-7044, the management of storage tanks in the Air Force must comply with National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) standards. While NFPA 30 specifies that shop-built, aboveground oil storage tanks constructed of steel are to be inspected and tested in accordance with STI SP001 (see above), it provides more substantive guidance regarding pressure testing of tanks to confirm their integrity. The NFPA 30 guidance encompasses integrity testing of horizontal and vertical aboveground storage tanks, single-walled tanks, double-walled tanks to include the interstitial space, and associated piping. In addition to addressing storage tank inspection and testing provisions in 40 CFR 112, NFPA 30 provides extensive guidance d.

relating to storage tank fire protection and safety criteria to include specific inspection guidelines.

Part 2. GENERAL FACILITY INFORMATION

1. Description of Vance AFB(40 CFR 112.7(a)(3))

a. Location and Setting

(1) Vance AFB is located in Garfield County, Oklahoma, approximately 5 miles south of Enid, Oklahoma, and approximately 94 miles northwest of Oklahoma City. The Base is 1,307 feet above sea level and encompasses approximately 2,122 acres including fee-owned land and easements. The land the base currently occupies was leased from the City of Enid to the federal government in 1941 for the sum of $1 a year.

(2) Construction of the airfield complex began in late 1941, and on 21 November 1941 the base was officially activated as the Air Corps Basic Flying School of Enid, Oklahoma. The mission of the school was to train aviation cadets to become aircraft pilots and commissioned officers in the Army Air Corps. The demand for pilots decreased after World War II, and the Enid Army Flying Field, as it was named in 1943, was closed on 31 January 1947. With the creation of the United States Air Force as a separate service in September 1947, it became evident the Enid training facilities would again be required, and the base was reactivated as Enid Air Force Base on 13 January 1948. As a pilot training base within Air Training Command, its mission was to provide training for advanced students in multi-engine aircraft. In keeping with the Air Force tradition of naming bases for deceased American pilots, the Base was renamed Vance AFB on 9 July 1949 after local World War II hero and Medal of Honor winner, Lieutenant Colonel Leon Robert Vance, Jr.
