Oil and Hazardous Substance Integrated Contingency Plan, Volume 3 Marine Corps Base – Camp Pendleton, California i July 24, 2008

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

This Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasure (SPCC) Plan includes a description of storage and transfer operations for oil products associated with aboveground storage tanks (ASTs), underground storage tanks (USTs), oil-water separators (OWSs), and other non-tank storage facilities located throughout the Marine Corps Base (MCB) Camp Pendleton; a description of the spill prevention systems of each tank; and a description of inspections, integrity testing, recordkeeping, security, and training practices. Emergency notification procedures, spill response equipment, spill containment and cleanup operations, and spill reporting requirements that are followed by MCB Camp Pendleton personnel when responding to spills are described elsewhere in MCB Camp Pendleton’s Integrated Contingency Plan (ICP).

Information presented is based on field investigations and interviews with personnel from the Assistant Chief of Staff, (AC/S) Environmental Security, Facilities Maintenance Department (FMD), and units (including tenant commands) that manage the tanks and bulk fuel facilities. Policies, practices, and capabilities of the SPCC Plan were reviewed and evaluated and recommendations are provided to improve and update spill prevention measures.

According to SPCC regulations, spills must be documented and spill records must be maintained. AC/S Environmental Security maintains a log book (ICP – Volume 4) that documents spill events on MCB Camp Pendleton.

All tanks are visually inspected periodically, and certain tanks are integrity tested.

Records of inspections and integrity testing are maintained at AC/S Environmental Security, and records of maintenance / repairs are maintained by FMD, Marine Corps Community Services (MCCS) organization, or at the units that manage the tanks. The records remain on file for a 3-year period.

Base personnel that manage oil or oil products receive annual briefings on the SPCC Plan and the Integrated Contingency Plan, as well as on other policies involving spill prevention and response. The SPCC regulations require that documentation of training be maintained for a 3-year period. This SPCC Plan includes topics that are discussed during briefings.

This SPCC Plan was prepared in accordance with Title 40 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Part 112.7 for owners and operators of non-transportation related facilities with the potential to discharge oil in harmful quantities into navigable waters of the United States. Facility owners / operators are required to review and update their plan five years from the date of the previous review. 40 CFR 112 also requires that facilities update their SPCC Plan in the event of a significant change in oil-storage capacity takes place. MCB Camp Pendleton closed one 250,000-gallon tank (31911) in accordance with federal regulations. The Base has also added several small generator tanks throughout the facility. Therefore, the SPCC update requirements for the five-year review and decommissioning of a bulk-storage container are satisfied in this Plan.

ii July 24, 2008

This SPCC Plan will be effective from its implementation date and must be reviewed and amended if there is a modification in the facility design, construction, operation, or maintenance that materially affects the potential for an oil spill. This SPCC Plan must be amended within 6 months of tank removal or modification.

iii July 24, 2008

MANAGEMENT APPROVAL

This Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasure (SPCC) Plan was prepared for Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton in accordance with good engineering practices. It has the full approval of management at a level of authority to commit the necessary resources to ensure full SPCC Plan implementation. The amended SPCC Plan will be implemented as described herein, and will be reviewed and evaluated at least once every five years.

I have reviewed the recommendations for regulatory compliance as presented in this SPCC Plan. By virtue of my office, I have authority to approve this document on behalf of the facility and to commit the necessary resources to implement the required improvements to comply with existing applicable federal and state laws.

Existing Regulatory Deficiencies and Best Engineering Practices Regulatory deficiencies and best engineering practices from previous SPCC Plans have been addressed to the fullest extent possible. Current regulatory or best practice issues present at MCB Camp Pendleton are established in this SPCC Plan. The issues documented in this plan are the result of field surveys conducted in January and July 2008.

Required Actions In 40 CFR 112, the SPCC rule provides a six-month period for implementing improvements to regulatory deficiencies established in owner / operator initiated SPCC Plan and SPCC Plan Amendments. Existing capital improvement projects to correct many of the deficiencies identified in this SPCC Plan are already in the approval and development cycle at MCB Camp Pendleton.

Recommended Actions The best engineering practice recommendations are not violations of SPCC regulations and are therefore not required actions for MCB Camp Pendleton. However, if funding is available, the Base should consider implementation of these recommendations as a means to further enhance spill prevention and control at MCB Camp Pendleton Compilation of Regulatory Deficiencies and Best Engineering Practice Recommendations A report of regulatory deficiencies and recommended best engineering practices was completed by SAIC and Datanet Engineering, Inc. and sent to MCB Camp Pendleton, AC/S Environmental Security in March 2008. This report is incorporated into the SPCC Plan by reference. The report supplements existing regulatory deficiencies and best engineering practice recommendations identified in previous MCB Camp Pendleton SPCC Plans (by Ensafe/PCCI dated 2003, CH2MHILL dated 2002 and TetraTech Inc.

dated 1997).

1.0 INTRODUCTION

This Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasure (SPCC) Plan for Marine Corps Base (MCB) Camp Pendleton is issued to satisfy the requirements of 40 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) 112. The requirement to amend the existing plan by 1 July 2009 and to extend the review period to five years from the date of the last periodic review is satisfied by this Plan. The date of the next periodic review is provided in this Plan Update’s Owner / Operator Record of SPCC Plan Amendments (i.e., January 2012).

The licensed professional engineer’s signature date on the existing SPCC Plan is accepted as the effective date of the SPCC Plan for the purposes of determining the next required review date (i.e., five years from signature date). However, subsequent five-year reviews will be based on owner / operator’s signature of the SPCC Plan, rather than the engineer’s signature date.

The regulatory deficiencies and best engineering practice recommendations presented in the previous SPCC Plans (Ensafe/PCCI – 2003, CH2MHILL – 2000, and Tetra Tech, Inc. – 1997) are still valid and require facility attention as outlined in that SPCC Plan.

Regulatory deficiencies and best engineering practice recommendations related to the new SPCC rules and this Plan Update are summarized in the Executive Summary and presented in the pertinent individual sections. The regulatory deficiencies and best engineering practice recommendations listed in this Plan Update are in addition to the deficiencies and recommendations presented in previous MCB Camp Pendleton SPCC Plans.

1.1 SPCC Plan Update and Amendment

The SPCC Plan will be reviewed by the owner or operator every five years as outlined in the Owner / Operator Record of SPCC Plan Five-year Review page (page vi).

Furthermore, the SPCC Plan is required to be amended within six months and changes implemented within one year of any material changes to the facility. Any technical amendments to the SPCC Plan must be reviewed and certified by a licensed professional engineer (also as noted on page vii).

1.2 Plan Update Cross-Reference Matrix

A cross-reference matrix for each of the applicable regulatory citations of 40 CFR 112 is provided on the following pages as Table 1-1. For each citation, the matrix indicates the related section of the existing SPCC Plan and the related section of this Plan Update.

2.3 Facility Description

MCB Camp Pendleton is situated in southern California, approximately halfway between Los Angeles and San Diego. The facility covers an area of approximately 125,000 acres (almost 200 square miles) and lies almost entirely in San Diego County, with only the northern border of the facility located in Orange County. The terrain is mostly rolling hills and valleys ranging 10 to 12 miles inland from the coast; elevations on the Base range from sea level to approximately 2,100 feet above mean sea level. The Base is bordered on the west by the Pacific Ocean and includes approximately 17 miles of coastline.

MCB Camp Pendleton employs approximately 24,000 military and 4,650 civilian personnel and has a total population of more than 40,000. There are approximately 13,000 family members associated with military personnel living on Base. Residential areas are spread throughout the footprint of the Base. MCB Camp Pendleton is self-sustaining and includes a hospital, several fire stations, and shopping facilities for residents and an air station, training facilities, maintenance facilities, fuel farms, and utilities that support the main mission of the Base. Because of the large geographical size of the Base, MCB Camp Pendleton is divided into numerical areas for categorization. Each building has a numerical designation, of which the first two digits correspond to the area numerical designation (e.g., Building 1164 is located in Area 11).

MCB Camp Pendleton is the largest amphibious assault training facility of the United States Marine Corps. MCB Camp Pendleton is the only west coast military installation at which a comprehensive air, sea, and ground assault training exercise can be conducted. The mission of MCB Camp Pendleton is described below:

• Receive, process, and conduct individual combat training for Marines

• Train units for overseas deployment

• Provide logistical support for other U.S. Marine Corps activities

• Provide housing, training facilities, logistical support, and administrative support for

Fleet Marine Force Units and other assigned units To support its mission, MCB Camp Pendleton operates several bulk fuel storage tank areas, numerous ancillary oil storage tanks, and several hazardous material storage areas.

2.4 Excluded Facilities

Certain areas owned by MCB Camp Pendleton are leased for non-military uses;

therefore, they are excluded from this SPCC Plan. These areas include the following:

• San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station (SONGS)

• Agricultural properties in Area 33 and Area 61

• Fallbrook Switchyard, which is leased to the Atchison, Topeka, and Santa Fe

Railroad, and which lies off-Base adjacent to Area 21

• San Diego Gas and Electric Company substation / transformer areas

• Stuart Mesa Farm / Harry Singh Farm

• Transit America Stuart Mesa Maintenance Facility

• Jiffy Lube facility

2-3 July 24, 2008

The respective owners / operators of SONGS, Fallbrook Switchyard, and the San Diego Gas and Electric Company substations maintain their own SPCC Plans. The Stuart Mesa Farm / Harry Singh Farm and the Transit America Stuart Mesa Maintenance Facility also maintain their own SPCC Plans. See Attachment 3 of Annex 7 of the ICP for copes of these plans. These plans are also available through the AC/S Environmental Security office.

In addition to the aforementioned areas, Marine Corps Air Station (MCAS) Camp Pendleton operates under its own SPCC Plan, and is therefore considered an excluded facility.

Excluded Facilities Guidance Onsite lessees of contiguous areas of MCB Camp Pendleton which are excluded from the MCB Camp Pendleton SPCC planning process are required to certify that they will comply with all applicable federal, state and local as well as facility environmental laws and regulations.

Additionally, MCB Camp Pendleton is required to initiate a system of active management regarding these leased areas which are exempted from the SPCC planning process. At a minimum, lease language is required to be modified to include verbiage which stipulates that the lessee shall comply with all applicable federal, state, local as well as Base laws and regulations.

Combining adequate lease language with a program of active management for leased lands (i.e., field verification of compliance, inclusion of leased lands in the facilities internal environmental compliance audits) will serve to better ensure MCB Camp Pendleton that their lessees are complying with applicable regulations.

Active railroad and various underground pipelines (natural gas and fuel) traverse MCB Camp Pendleton but do not service or branch off to MCB Camp Pendleton. At least one of these pipelines is owned and operated by Kinder-Morgan Energy Partners, L.P. The active Kinder-Morgan line is a 16-inch high pressure refined petroleum products pipeline of welded steel construction which is coated and under cathodic protection. This line was installed in 1985 and was hydrostatically pressure-tested at the time of construction prior to being placed into service. Additionally, this 16-inch pipeline was internally inspected in 2007 and is under a 5-year inspection schedule. The Kinder-Morgan line also undergoes the following additional inspections:

• A monthly flight inspection where the course of the pipe is visually inspected for leak patterns

• A weekly drive / walk inspection over portions of the line.

For information concerning response actions for the portions of the Kinder-Morgan pipeline running through MCB Camp Pendleton, please reference Appendix E.

MCB Camp Pendleton has a total aboveground storage capacity of approximately 704,971 gallons. Appendix D contains information on the type of oil in each container and the container’s storage capacity. Additional details may include container construction, secondary containment information, good engineering practices, and potential spill prediction and control measures.

3.3 Drainage Pathway and Distance to Navigable Waters

Several waterways drain from the hills in the western portion of MCB Camp Pendleton and flow toward the Pacific Ocean. From north to south, these waterways are Cristianitos Creek, San Mateo Creek, San Onofre Creek, Las Flores Creek, Las Pulgas Creek, Aliso Creek, the Santa Margarita River, and Pilgrim Creek. Annual precipitation averages between 10 and 17 inches and occurs primarily during the winter months.

Most runoff on MCB Camp Pendleton follows streets to storm drain systems and ditches or follows the natural topography of the area to the nearest river or creek. Storm drains in coastal areas of MCB Camp Pendleton drain directly into the Pacific Ocean.

3.4 Overview

MCB Camp Pendleton operates various sites used for bulk storage of oil, primarily mobility and jet fuel. Written procedures that include discharge prevention measures for

3-2 July 24, 2008 the handling of products have been developed loading and loading procedures and transfers. These procedures are available at the Environmental Office or at the sites where major storage and handling operations take place. Each site falls under the control of one of four organizational groups on MCB Camp Pendleton, each with unique operation and management protocols. Accordingly, regulatory compliance for each of these tanks and their ancillary facilities is provided under each regulatory citation for the following subsections:

Base Bulk Fuel Storage Base Bulk Fuel receives, stores, and issues two types of fuel products that are stored in two 250,000-gallon ASTs. Each is a single walled, field-erected, vertical cylindrical, steel aboveground storage tank. Table 3-1 summarizes the status, type of tanks and products stored at Base Bulk Fuel. These tanks are contained within a 6-foot concrete dike. Each section of the containment structure was designed to contain 110 percent of the capacity of the largest tank within the section. The concrete containment structure is coated with an epoxy material. A drain valve in the containment structure must be manually unlocked and opened to drain rainwater collected within the diked areas. All runoff is visually inspected for oily sheens before the drain valve is opened. The amount of precipitation is recorded before the drain is opened. Any material drained through the valve flows to a weir south of the tanks in the Base Bulk Fuel facility.

Base Bulk Fuel delivers bulk fuel products to all areas of the Base except for retail gasoline stations operated by Marine Corps Community Services (MCCS) and the Assault Craft Unit Five (ACU-5) bulk fuel storage facility in Area 31. Fuel is transported by 5,500-gallon and 2,400-gallon tanker trucks operated by Base Bulk Fuel. All the trucks receive daily safety inspections by Base Fuel drivers; truck maintenance is performed by Base Motor Transport and outside contractors as necessary.

Tank No. Product Tank Type / Capacity 22307 JP-8 Single wall vertical steel cylinder / 250,000 gallons

22308 Biodiesel Single wall vertical steel cylinder / 250,000 gallons

The two ASTs at Base Bulk Fuels are of welded-steel construction; however, roof construction and other features vary. All the tanks are designed to normally operate at pressures no greater than 2.5 atmospheres. All the tanks are bolted to the concrete.

Tanks 22307 and 22308 have conical roofs with pressure-relief valves centrally mounted. Both tanks have sight gauges, bubbler-type level sensors, and are only filled to 85 percent capacity.

All 4-inch, or greater, diameter pipelines in the AST area consist of Schedule 80 welded steel. Lines less than 4 inches in diameter are Schedule 80 or Schedule 40 steel and are connected by vise-welded fittings. All lines containing fuel or vapors are painted white and are marked in terms of their product and direction of flow. All fire suppression lines are painted red.

ACU-5 Bulk Fuel Storage Two 50,000-gallon, single walled, field-erected, vertical cylindrical, steel bulk fuel storage tanks containing JP-5 are located in the ACU-5 Bulk Fuel Storage Area. The ACU-5 Facility is in Area 31, west of Interstate 5 and along the Pacific Ocean. Each AST is located within its own concrete-and-asphalt secondary containment dike. Each secondary containment dike is designed to hold 110 percent of the capacity of the tank.

The ASTs are equipped with high-level alarms. The tanks are visually inspected daily and periodically integrity-tested. The tanks are sounded with a drop tape to determine the volume of material in each tank prior to filling. A monthly inventory record check is performed to record tank inventories and to identify any potential product losses. Table 3-2 summarizes the status, type of tanks and products stored at ACU-5 Bulk Fuel Storage.

Table 3-2 ACU-5 Bulk Fuel Storage Aboveground Storage Tanks

Tank No. Product Tank Type / Capacity 31912 JP-5 Single wall vertical steel cylinder / 50,000 gallons 31913 JP-5 Single wall vertical steel cylinder / 50,000 gallons

Drain valves in the secondary containment structures are normally locked in the “closed” position. After visual inspection for oil sheen, storm water is recorded and released from each containment area and flows to an OWS near Building 31910, which lies south of the bulk fuel tanks.

Four pump islands are located southwest of the tanks. Two of these islands are receiving islands at which tanker trucks delivering JP-5 transfer the product to the storage tanks. JP-5 is delivered by an outside contractor. The remaining two islands are used to fuel equipment and vehicles with diesel. The concrete slab around these islands is sloped to a drainage swale that drains into the OWS. During fuel transfer operations, a diverter valve is turned to direct flow into an onsite 6,000-gallon spill UST.

Ancillary Tanks Tanks that supply fuel for backup generators, boiler rooms, water booster stations, and other uses are present on MCB Camp Pendleton. SPCC-related information on these ancillary tanks is summarized in Appendix D. The capacities of these tanks range from 60 to 10,000 gallons. The majority of these tanks are steel, double wall, vaulted tanks, with painted exteriors for corrosion protection. They are generally in good condition as a result of the Base’s program to replace many of its single wall tanks with steel, double wall tanks over the last several years. Most are protected from catastrophic vehicular damage through the placement of protective bollards. They are all visually inspected for leaks. As indicated in Appendix D, most have either level gauges and/or high-level alarms. The tanks are maintained and periodically visually inspected by the Base or unit tenant operators and hazardous material coordinator, or Facilities Maintenance Department (FMD) employees who perform routine maintenance of the boilers or other equipment. The tanks are filled by Base Fuel as needed; the fuel level of a tank is

3-4 July 24, 2008 determined visually before the tank is filled. Tanks associated with generators are visually inspected monthly by FMD.

Temporary Fueling Areas – On-Base Military Exercises MCB Camp Pendleton designates 13 outlying areas where temporary refueling may occur as part of military training exercises. When temporary refueling is required, the standard operating procedures (SOP) enclosed as Appendix B are implemented at the 13 outlying training areas. Spill prevention (“safety”) measures include:

• Lining fuel storage and transfer area berms with an impermeable liner

• Constructing fuel berms to contain 150 percent of product stored

• Filling fuel storage containers no more than 90 percent of capacity

• Capping all valves and dispensing nozzles when not in service

• Having filled sand bags staged and ready for use as a barrier to spills

• Staging sand bags between fuel equipment and natural drain to water

• Inspecting fuel equipment for defects and correcting defects immediately

• Requiring adequate numbers of trained personnel on-hand during fueling operations to react to a possible spill Other Oil and Hazardous Materials Storage There are several other types of product storage at MCB Camp Pendleton. These issues include drum storage areas, satellite accumulation areas, 90-day waste accumulation areas, oil / water separators, oil-filled transformers, and cooking oil and grease traps. These issues are addressed by the subsections below:

Drum Storage Areas A list of the drum storage areas at MCB Camp Pendleton is included Appendix D.

MCB Camp Pendleton manages hundreds of drums of material in various locations.

These drums may contain oil as well as other hazardous wastes, non-hazardous wastes, cleaning compounds, and solvents. All drums of material, hazardous waste or other, are stored inside a building or under cover, with secondary containment to prevent possible discharges.

Source material (virgin petroleum, oils, and lubricants) are dispensed to the Base from Building 22300. This building is used for dispensing source material contained within 55-gallon drums. Additionally, source materials are dispensed in smaller quantities (less than 55 gallons) from the Consolidated Service Center.

There are several types of secondary containment for drum storage generally employed at MCB Camp Pendleton. Plastic overpack containers are used to store and completely enclose the drums. The base of these containers has adequate volume to contain the contents of the largest container in the event of a leak or spill. Drums are stored in a secondary containment berm or on spill pallets. The berm is equipped with a drain and a discharge valve that is maintained in the closed position. The pallets have capacity which is sufficient enough to contain the contents of the largest container in the event of a spill or leak. Storm water that accumulates in the containment area is inspected for contamination prior to discharge. The containment area is inspected monthly for leaks and for container integrity.

Satellite Accumulation Areas and 90-Day Accumulation Areas The satellite accumulation areas and 90-day accumulation areas at MCB Camp Pendleton are included in Appendix D.

Satellite accumulation areas are used for accumulation and temporary storage of waste materials in 55-gallon drums or smaller containers. All materials stored in satellite accumulation areas are either inside a building or an enclosed outside structure. When a container in a satellite accumulation area is ready for disposal, it is transported to a 90-day accumulation area.

All 90-day accumulation areas are constructed of impermeable materials, have adequate secondary containment and spill control equipment to minimize the potential for discharge of hazardous waste. These areas are additionally covered or enclosed to prevent contact with storm water. All secondary containments are equipped with a discharge valve that is maintained in the closed position at all times. Storm water that accumulates in the containment area must be inspected for contamination prior to discharge. All storage areas are inspected monthly, at a minimum, for signs of leakage or degradation of secondary containment systems.

Satellite accumulation areas are also addressed in Section 7.0 and Table 7-1.
