3. Equipped with a sump to collect and dispose of wash water
Use as little water as practicable when washing vehicles and equipment. Hoses must be equipped with a positive shutoff valve.
Discharge the liquid from wash racks to a recycling system or to another authorized system. Remove liquids and sediment as necessary.
Vehicle and Equipment Fueling and Maintenance If practicable, perform maintenance on vehicles and equipment off-site.
If fueling or maintenance must be performed at the job site, obtain authorization for an assigned area or areas for these activities before using them. Minimize mobile fueling and maintenance activities. Perform fueling and maintenance activities on level ground in areas protected from stormwater run-on and runoff.
Use containment berms or dikes around fueling and maintenance areas. Keep enough absorbents and spill kits in the fueling or maintenance area and on fueling trucks to handle potential spills. Dispose of spill-cleanup material and kits immediately after use. Use drip pans or absorbent pads during fueling or maintenance.
Do not leave fueling or maintenance areas unattended during fueling and maintenance activities. Fueling nozzles must be equipped with (1) an automatic shutoff control and (2) vapor recovery where required by the Air Quality Management District. Secure nozzles in an upright position when not in use. Do not top off fuel tanks.
Recycle or properly dispose of used batteries and tires.
If leaks cannot be repaired immediately, remove the vehicle or equipment from the job site.
Material and Equipment Used Over Water Place drip pans and absorbent pads under vehicles and equipment used over water. Keep enough spill-cleanup material with the vehicles and equipment to handle potential spills. Place drip pans or plastic sheeting under vehicles and equipment on docks, barges, or other surfaces over water whenever the vehicles or equipment will be idle for more than 1 hour.
Install watertight curbs or toe boards on barges, platforms, docks, or other surfaces over water to contain material, debris, and tools. Secure any material or debris to prevent spills or discharge into the water due to wind.
Report discharges to receiving waters immediately upon discovery.
Structure Removal Over or Adjacent to Water Do not allow demolished material to enter storm drain systems and receiving waters. Use authorized covers and platforms to collect debris. Use attachments on equipment to catch debris during small demolition activities. Empty debris-catching devices daily and handle debris under section 13-4.03D.
