INTRODUCTION
Purpose
A Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasure (SPCC) Plan is a detailed, facility-specific, written description of how a facility’s operations comply with the requirements of the Oil Pollution Prevention regulation of Title 40, Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Part 112. These requirements include measures such as secondary containment, facility drainage, dikes and barriers, sump and collection systems, retention ponds, curbing, tank corrosion protection systems, and liquid level devices.
Regulatory Background
The United States Coast Guard (USCG) and U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) have regulatory jurisdiction over fuel and oil transportation-related facilities. Fueling, oiling, and maintenance of vessels falls under the jurisdiction of the USCG; fuel and oil storage and handling activities of transportation-related facilities such as railway and pipelines falls under the jurisdiction of the DOT. The U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), under the Oil Pollution Prevention regulation of 40 CFR 112, regulates all other facilities that are not transportation related.
Section 311(j)(1)(C) of the Clean Water Act required the President to issue regulations establishing procedures, methods, equipment, and other requirements to prevent discharges of oil from vessels and facilities and to contain such discharges. When the President delegated the authority to regulate non-transportation-related onshore facilities to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the EPA promulgated 40 CFR 112, published 11 December 1973, to protect the surface waters of the United States. The EPA has amended this regulation several times. EPA established the SPCC Plan requirements in extensive amendments to 40 CFR 112 published 17 July 2002.
EPA changed the deadline for amending and implementing SPCC Plans in amendments published 9 January 2003, 17 April 2003, 11 August 2004, 17 February 2006, 16 May 2007, and 19 June 2009. The deadline for amending and implementing SPCC Plans was 10 November 2011.
EPA published significant amendments on 26 December 2006. These amendments: 1) allow owners and operators of qualified facilities that store 10,000 gallons of oil or less and meet other qualifying criteria to self-certify their SPCC Plans in lieu of review and certification by a Professional Engineer; 2) provide an alternative to the general secondary containment requirement without requiring a determination of impracticability for facilities that have particular types of oil-filled equipment; 3) define and exempt particular vehicle fuel tanks and other on-board bulk oil storage containers used for motive power; 4) exempt mobile refuelers from the sized secondary containment requirements for bulk storage containers;
5) remove and reserve the SPCC requirements for animal fats and vegetable oils that are specific to onshore oil production facilities, onshore oil drilling and work-over facilities, and offshore oil drilling, production, or work-over facilities; and 6) extend the SPCC compliance dates for farms until EPA issues future amendments containing requirements for farms.
This SPCC Plan is based upon 40 CFR 112 including all amendments published through 14 January 2010 and the Naval Facilities Engineering Command Southwest (NAVFAC SW) Environmental Compliance Core’s template for the Naval Base Point Loma (NBPL) SPCC Plan, including correspondence with regulatory agencies.
SPCC – Section 1 – Page 2
General Information
This SPCC Plan covers all oil storage and handling sites for the DLA Installation Support for Energy (DLA Energy) Defense Fuel Support Point (DFSP) Point Loma Remediation System with capacities 55 gallons or greater. This includes both bulk storage containers (e.g., aboveground storage tanks [ASTs], drum storage areas, etc.) and oil-filled operating equipment (e.g., transformers, electrical switches, etc.)
Oil storage and handling sites only include petroleum-based oils. Hazardous substance storage and handling sites that are not oil-related (i.e., not regulated by 40 CFR 112) are not included in the scope of this Plan. The United States Coast Guard (USCG) has a separate SPCC Plan. The Naval Supply Systems Command, Fleet Logistics Center San Diego (NAVSUP FLCSD) DFSP Point Loma terminal has a separate SPCC Plan.
All of the AST-related surveyed containers and equipment are adequately documented in this SPCC Plan, per the requirements of 40 CFR 112. All bulk storage containers are thoroughly detailed in Section 3 write-ups. These write-ups document and depict five (5) ASTs. This SPCC Plan does not include oil-filled electrical transformers and switches which are owned and managed by NAVFAC SW. This SPCC Plan does not include the DFSP Point Loma bulk storage and distribution facility under the administrative control of the NAVSUP FLCSD.

Location of Installation
DFSP Point Loma Remediation System is a government-owned, contractor-operated, non-aqueous phase liquid (NAPL) and total petroleum hydrocarbon (TPH)-impacted groundwater recovery and treatment facility under the administrative control of the DLA Energy. The primary function of DFSP Point Loma Remediation System is to recover NAPL and TPH-impacted groundwater, separate the recovered NAPL, and treat the groundwater for proper disposal. The sources and nature of the contaminants of potential concern (COPCs) at the site are fuel petroleum hydrocarbons, primarily from diesel fuel, marine (DFM) and jet propellant 5 (JP-5), as well as minor amounts of aviation gasoline (Avgas) and motor gasoline (Mogas). The tanks and piping that released the fuels have either been removed from service or repaired and are no longer a source. Residual soil contamination exists between the tanks or pipelines that leaked, and NAPL is present at the groundwater table. The residual contamination held in the soil is not migrating; NAPL has the potential to migrate and diffuse into the groundwater if not remediated.
DFSP Point Loma Remediation System is composed of several NAPL recovery and groundwater extraction systems and collection points placed within the approximately 50 acres of the DFSP Point Loma terminal and surrounding NBPL property; these collection points collectively occupy less than an
SPCC – Section 1 – Page 3 acre. There are various extraction and recovery system components, including six vertical extraction wells, a horizontal extraction well, and two deep horizontal collection trenches with sumps. The recovered NAPL and groundwater are handled at three locations, the Groundwater Recovery Compound, the SPAWAR Transfer Compound and the Remediation Process Compound. The DFSP Point Loma Remediation System is located on the east side of the Point Loma Peninsula, about two miles inside the entrance to San Diego Bay. The DFSP Point Loma Remediation System lies approximately three miles southwest of the San Diego Airport and four miles west of downtown San Diego. It is located within the boundary of Naval Base Point Loma, from the northeast property boundary line extending south along Rosecrans Street approximately one-half mile.
Refer to Appendix A for the location map of the DFSP Point Loma Remediation System facility.
Responsibilities
The ultimate responsibility for implementing this SPCC Plan lies with the DLA Energy and the overall responsibility for all actions on NBPL lie with the NBPL CO. The Installation Environmental Program Manager provides oversight and ensures that the Plan is being implemented by tank owners/operators and other tenant command activities involved in storage and handling of petroleum, oil and lubricant (POL) products. Through the Navy Regional command structure, a chain of command has been established to ensure compliance with the various components of the Plan. The following section describes NAVFAC SW, Navy Regional, DLA Energy and DFSP Point Loma Remediation System contractor personnel who share the responsibility for implementing this SPCC Plan.
SPCC Program Manager: The NBPL Installation Environmental Program Manager is a NAVFAC
SW employee who reports to the NBPL Commanding Officer and has environmental oversight responsibilities of NBPL and its tenants. The NBPL Installation Environmental Program Manager is also designated as the SPCC Program Manager and is directly responsible for ensuring the implementation of this Plan. The SPCC Program Manager’s responsibilities with respect to SPCC Plan are to:
Ensure that site surveys are conducted at least once every five years to determine if site modifications are required to remain in compliance with SPCC guidelines;
Review all plans related to oil storage, handling, or transfer facilities for new construction, maintenance, or remodeling, in order to determine if an SPCC Plan amendment or additional SPCC documentation is required;
Recommend facility modifications to achieve compliance with the SPCC guidelines so as to ensure project submittals as soon as possible, but no later than six months after any change in design, construction, operation, or maintenance occurs (this responsibility is also generated by DLA Energy and DFSP Point Loma Remediation System supervisors);
Develop procedures and train security personnel on how to deal with vehicles entering the installation with shifting or leaking loads of oil products, and ensure personnel are familiar with hazardous material vehicle markings.
Ensure that the SPCC Plan is current and responsive to the activities and operations performed at the DFSP Point Loma Remediation System;
Ensure that training, as required by 40 CFR 112, is conducted; and Develop inspection logs.
Security Department: The responsibilities of the NBPL Security Department with respect to this
SPCC Plan include:
SPCC – Section 1 – Page 4
Inspect security systems, such as land and water access control, locked storage areas, lighting, fencing, and traffic control, to ensure that spills do not result from vandalism or unauthorized entry.
DFSP Point Loma Remediation System Operational Supervisors (Contractor): The responsibilities of DFSP Point Loma Remediation System contractor supervisors with respect to this SPCC Plan include:
Identify the number and types of personnel needing training, and coordinate this requirement through their training coordinator. New DFSP Point Loma Remediation System employees should be trained within three months from the date of employment;
Visually inspect vehicles that contain fuel oil entering the DFSP Point Loma Remediation System, for leaks and any obvious mechanical deficiencies which could cause a spill event or accident; and
Coordinate, with DLA Energy and the NBPL environmental office in the development of safety, security, facility inspection logs, and regulatory reporting requirements for the operations, equipment, and facilities under the supervisor's cognizance; and
Perform the assigned inspections identified in the SPCC inspection logs, and initiate corrective actions for any deficiencies found during inspections.
Tank inspections, repairs, and general maintenance are the responsibility of the contractor site operators, as are spills resulting from tank or drum leaks. If a leak or spill occurs during tank filling or pumping out, it is the responsibility of the truck operator to initiate emergency procedures including initial spill notification.

Citation-by-Citation Responses to SPCC Requirements
Preface
The following section sequentially lists responses to the SPCC requirements of 40 CFR 112, as amended 13 November 2009 (effective 14 January 2010), and references pages where pertinent information is located in the Plan. Adhering to this sequential format is designed to allow Plan users to rapidly locate regulatory-specific information within the Plan.
Part 112 – OIL POLLUTION PREVENTION
§ 112.1 ~ General Applicability
The SPCC requirements are applicable to the DLA Energy’s DFSP Point Loma Remediation System because the aggregate aboveground oil storage capacity (including all containers and operating equipment 55 gallons or greater in capacity) exceeds 1,320 gallons and the facility is a non-transportation-related facility engaged in the recovery NAPL and treatment of TPH-contaminated groundwater which due to its location cold reasonably be expected to discharge oil (recovered NAPL) in or upon the navigable waters of the US should a catastrophic event, system failure or other occurrence result in a spill. Those waters would be the San Diego Bay, located to the east of the system, with the shortest route to the bay being approximately 575 feet.
§ 112.2 ~ Definitions
Not applicable; nothing required.
§ 112.3 ~ Requirement to Prepare and Implement a Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasure Plan
This Plan was prepared in accordance with § 112.7. A licensed PE has reviewed this Plan and certified it to be adequate for DFSP Point Loma Remediation System. Refer to Section 1 Page 9 for the Professional Engineer Certification. The authority to commit resources for implementation of this plan lies with the owner, DLA Energy. Refer to Section 1 Page 9 for Management Approval of SPCC Plan.
§ 112.4 ~ Amendment of Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasure Plan by Regional Administrator
DFSP Point Loma Remediation System has neither discharged more than 1,000 gallons of oil in a single event, nor discharged more than 42 gallons of oil in each of two events in any twelve month period into a navigable waterway, since inception. Therefore no report to the EPA Regional Administrator, State or local authorities, is required.
§ 112.5 ~ Amendment of Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasure Plan by Owners or Operators
DLA Energy must amend this Plan within six months when there is a change in facility design, construction, operation, or maintenance that could affect the potential for discharge. The SPCC Program Manager / NBPL IEPM must also conduct a complete review and evaluation of this Plan every five years
SPCC - Section 2 - Page 2 and state (i.e., document in writing) whether or not a revision or amendment is necessary. Five year plan review tracking is shown on Section 1 Page 9.
Non-technical changes made by the installation will not require certification by a PE. Any technical changes (typically made by the PE or an agent of the PE) would require certification by the PE.
Therefore, PE certification is only needed when technical changes to the Plan have occurred.
For both non-technical and technical amendments, refer to Section 1 Page 13, where listing and certifications of amendments are to be shown, as applicable.
§ 112.6 ~ Qualified Facility Plan Requirements
Not applicable; The aggregate aboveground storage capacity of the DFSP Point Loma Remediation System exceeds 10,000 gallons thus DFSP is not a “Qualified Facility.”
§ 112.7 ~ General Requirements for Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasure Plans
This Plan was prepared in accordance with good engineering practices, in writing, following the sequence specified in § 112.7. The Plan has the full approval of management at a level of authority to commit the necessary resources to fully implement the Plan. Refer to Section 1 Page 9 for the Management Approval of this SPCC Plan.
§ 112.7(a) ~ General Plan Requirements
Not applicable; nothing required.
§ 112.7(a)(1) ~ General Requirements
Not applicable; nothing required.
§ 112.7(a)(2) ~ Deviations from Plan Requirements
DFSP Point Loma Remediation System may deviate from some of the requirements of Part 112, providing the reason for nonconformance can be adequately explained, and equivalent environmental protection is provided.
There is a deviation written in this Plan for the requirements of Part 112. The deviation consists of complying with the 40 CFR 112.8(k) for the integrity testing requirements for above ground storage containers using a monitoring and inspection program for visual integrity testing.
§ 112.7(a)(3) ~ Facility Characteristics That Must be Described in the Plan
A facility diagram (Figure A-1) depicting the DFSP Point Loma Remediation System location has been included in Section 4, Appendix A. The facility diagram is designed to be used in conjunction with more detailed individual site maps included in Section 3, that depict the inspected Groundwater Recovery Compound, SPAWAR Transfer Compound, Remediation Process Compound in greater detail.
Discharge prevention measures including procedures for routine handling of NAPL (recovery, storage, unloading, and facility transfers, etc.) are covered in Section 3 of this Plan, as well as Appendix E – Oil Spill Prevention Operating Procedures.
SPCC - Section 2 - Page 3
The discharge or drainage controls such as secondary containment around containers and other structures, equipment, and procedures for the control of a discharge are discussed individually for sites and containers in Section 3, as well as Appendix C – Inspection Checklists.
Countermeasures for discharge discovery, response, and cleanup (both the facility’s capability and those that might be required of a contractor) are found in the NBPL Integrated Contingency Plan (ICP). First responders required actions are summarized in the “Red Plan” portion of the ICP.
Methods of disposal of recovered materials are in accordance with applicable legal requirements.
Contact lists and phone numbers for the facility response team, National Response Center, cleanup contractors for response, and all appropriate Federal, State, and local agencies that must be contacted in case of a spill are provided in the NBPL ICP Red Plan. Refer to Section 4, Appendix D.
§ 112.7(a)(4) ~ Spill Reporting Information in the Plan
In the event of a discharge, information and procedures for reporting the discharge must be readily available. This information and these procedures have already been developed and documented in the NBPL ICP, and summarized in the “Red Plan” portion of the ICP. (The Red Plan is designed to be utilized for initial response actions.) The reporting procedures can be found in the Oil and Hazardous Substance Discharge Telephone Report Sheet which is included in the Red Plan. This report sheet fulfills the requirements of § 112.7(a)(4).
§ 112.7(a)(5) ~ Emergency Procedures
Procedures that are to be followed in the event of a discharge must be described so that they are readily usable in an emergency. These procedures have already been developed and documented in the NBPL ICP, and summarized in the “Red Plan.” Refer to Section 4, Appendix D.
This Red Plan fulfills the requirements of § 112.7(a)(5), and contains procedures, checklists, phone numbers, general information, and maps. The full Emergency Response Action Plan (ERAP) (not included in this SPCC Plan) provides further detail on emergency response actions, above and beyond initial response.
§ 112.7(b) ~ Fault Analysis
For fault analysis information, including information on potential spill direction, rate of flow, and total quantity of oil that can be discharged for each type of major equipment failure for a specific site or container, refer to Section 3 of this document.

SPCC - Section 2 - Page 4
§ 112.7(c) ~ Secondary Containment
Bulk storage containers within the DFSP Point Loma Remediation System are generally either double-walled or have secondary containment large enough to hold the largest container plus sufficient freeboard to allow for precipitation. In the site-specific write-ups in Section 3, the secondary containment structures of unsheltered single-walled ASTs have been checked to ensure containment of 100 percent of the contents of the largest tank plus additional freeboard to accommodate the 3.5 inches (24 hour) precipitation of the historical San Diego, CA 25-year storm event.
For secondary containment information for a specific site or container, refer to Section 3 of this document. Specifically, refer to the “Secondary Containment” heading of the site in the table of the container in question. For inspection and operational information refer to Section 4, Appendix C and Appendix E, respectively.
§ 112.7(d) ~ Deviations from Secondary Containment Requirements (Contingency Planning)
DFSP Point Loma Remediation System currently has no deviations from the secondary containment requirements however future operations may deviate from secondary containment requirements if containment structures or pieces of equipment are determined to be not practicable.
A clear explanation of why such measures are not practicable will be provided in a Plan amendment, should this become necessary. However, the reason for nonconformance must be justified, and alternate methods of ‘equivalent environmental protection’ must be provided. Any such deviations will be documented and included in a technical amendment at the time of implementation.
§ 112.7(e) ~ Inspections, Tests, and Records
Records of inspections and tests of bulk storage containers, signed by the appropriate supervisor or inspector, must be kept with the SPCC Plan for at least three years. Records of inspections and tests kept under usual and customary business practices (including construction records, inspection history, and repair / alteration history) are also acceptable.
Each site maintains their own inspections, tests, and records including the location of inspection records. General inspection checklist examples can be found in Section 4, Appendix C.
§ 112.7(f) ~ Employee Training and Discharge Prevention Procedures
Oil-handling personnel must be adequately trained at least annually. All DFSP Point Loma Remediation System contractor employees whose jobs involve the storage or handling of POLs will receive appropriate spill control training as required by 40 CFR 112. Initial and follow-up training requirements are listed below:
The operation and maintenance of equipment to prevent the discharge of oil.
Discharge procedure protocol.
Applicable pollution control laws, rules, and regulations, typically.
General facility operation, maintenance and inspection procedures.
Contents of the SPCC Plan.
Contents of the NBPL ICP & Red Plan
SPCC - Section 2 - Page 5
Discussion of any recent discharges, failures, or malfunctions, and lessons learned as a result.
Discussion of any recently developed precautionary measures.
DFSP Point Loma Remediation System Contractor Supervisors provide on-site training to operators of the tanks on a monthly basis. Procedures are included in this Plan, Section 4, Appendix E “Oil Spill Prevention Operating Procedures”.
§ 112.7(g) ~ Security (Excluding Oil Production Facilities)
NBPL Base Security provides 24-hour surveillance to ensure perimeter and internal security, greatly reducing the likelihood of leaks or spills caused by unauthorized tampering or vandalism.
Furthermore, all areas at DFSP Point Loma Remediation System that store significant amounts of recovered NAPL or fuel-related materials are secured by fencing. The following additional security precautions shall be observed, as practical:
All unattended valves under positive pressure are either locked in the closed position or enclosed in a locked area when not required to be open;
All unattended storage areas are locked. Storage areas opening only into attended work areas will be considered attended; and All outside storage areas are adequately lighted to discourage vandalism and to aid in the early detection and cleanup of spills.
As indicated in Section 1 of this SPCC Plan, the responsibilities of DFSP Point Loma Remediation System contractor operators with respect to this SPCC Plan include:
Inspect security systems, such as land and water access control, locked storage areas, lighting, fencing, and traffic control, to ensure that spills do not result from vandalism or unauthorized entry; and
Visually inspect vehicles that contain fuel oil entering DFSP Point Loma Remediation System sites, for leaks and any obvious mechanical deficiencies which could cause a spill event or accident;
DFSP Point Loma Remediation System contractor operators receive training in inspection procedures to be followed, and routine spill and equipment patrols ensure adequate precautions are in place.
For security information for a specific site or container, refer to Section 3 of this document.
Specifically, refer to the “Security” heading in the table of the site in question. [Security measures, such as fencing or lighting, may be site-specific features, container-specific features, or both.]
§ 112.7(h) ~ Loading/Unloading (Excluding Offshore Facilities)
DFSP Point Loma Remediation System does not currently operate any truck loading/unloading facilities. Plans are in place to complete the installation of one truck loading pad south of the upper treatment pad within the Remediation Processing Compound. Refer to Section 3 of this document for more site specific information. Upon completion of this truck loading pad, this SPCC Plan Amendment will be revised and resubmitted.
SPCC - Section 2 - Page 6
§ 112.7(i) ~ Brittle Fracture Evaluation
There are no field constructed tanks in the DFSP Point Loma Remediation System.
§ 112.7(j) ~ State Rules
There are no more stringent applicable State rules, regulations, and guidelines pertaining to discharge prevention and containment procedures than those found in Part 112; there are no additional requirements for California or for San Diego County, i.e., California adopted the federal regulation in regards to the state SPCC Plan requirements. The County of San Diego acts as the CUPA who will be inspecting under the APSA program.
§ 112.7(k) ~ Qualified Oil-Filled Operational Equipment
The owner or operator of a facility with oil-filled operational equipment that meets the qualification criteria in paragraph (k)(1) of this sub-section may choose to implement for this qualified oil-filled operational equipment the alternate requirements as described in paragraph (k)(2) of this sub-section in lieu of general secondary containment required in paragraph (c) of this section.
In the case of DLA Energy for the DFSP Point Loma Remediation System, this system does meet the qualification criteria in paragraph (k)(1) for oil-filled operational equipment and thus doesn’t need to have secondary containment for the qualified oil-filled operational equipment (there are no oil-filled operational equipment in this system). Instead, the owner or operator of the NBPL facility with qualified oil-filled operational equipment will perform monthly inspections or monitoring to detect equipment failure and/or discharge. In the case of electrical oil-filled equipment such as transformers and switches, NAVFAC SW Public Works inspects and monitors all of their equipment monthly.
Also, this SPCC Plan functions as a separate document, but is also an annex to the NBPL Integrated Contingency Plan which outlines a written commitment of manpower, equipment, and materials required to expeditiously control and remove any quantity of oil discharged that may be harmful.
There is no qualified oil-filled operational equipment in the DFSP Point Loma Remediation System.
§ 112.8 ~ Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasure Plan Requirements for Onshore Oil Production Facilities (Excluding Production Facilities)
The DFSP Point Loma Remediation System is an onshore facility engaged in recovering, storing, and transferring NAPL. Consequently, the requirements of § 112.8 are applicable to the DFSP Point Loma Remediation System.
§ 112.8(a) ~ General Requirements – Onshore Facilities (Excluding Production Facilities)
DFSP must follow the general requirements of § 112.7, and must also follow the specific discharge and prevention procedures of § 112.8.
SPCC - Section 2 - Page 7
§ 112.8(b) ~ Facility Drainage
In addition to the following § 112.8 (b) requirements, refer to the Construction Storm Water Permit covering DFSP Point Loma Remediation System installation activity for allowable storm water draining and the construction storm water pollution prevention plan.
§ 112.8(b)(1) ~ Diked Storage Area Drainage
Diked secondary containment areas must not automatically empty when rainwater accumulates. Captured rainwater must be inspected prior to emptying to ensure no POL will be discharged. Secondary containment dikes, berms, curbing, or walls that have holes or pipes installed to allow for easy drainage of captured rainwater must be fitted with valves (refer to § 112.8(b)(2)). Secondary containment without drainage holes or pipes may use pumps, ejectors, or other means to remove captured rainwater, provided they are manually activated. No secondary containment of the DFSP Point Loma Remediation System currently has holes or pipes for easy drainage; all containment must be manually activated.
For secondary containment drainage for a specific site or container, refer to Section 3 of this document. For secondary containment inspection and after storm event procedures refer to Section 4, Appendix C.
§ 112.8(b)(2) ~ Diked Storage Areas – Valves Used; Inspection of Retained Stormwater
Secondary containment dikes, berms, curbing, or walls that have holes or pipes installed to allow for easy drainage of captured rainwater must be fitted with watertight manual open-and-closed valves. Lockable valves are highly preferable, since they will greatly improve the likelihood that the condition of the captured rainwater is inspected before emptying, and that the valve is closed upon completion of emptying.
Diked secondary containment areas at the DFSP Point Loma fuel terminal adhere to these requirements. No secondary containment of the DFSP Point Loma Remediation System currently has holes or pipes for easy drainage; all containment must be manually activated.
For secondary containment drainage for a specific site or container, refer to Section 3 of this document. For secondary containment inspection and after storm event procedures refer to Section 4, Appendix C.
§ 112.8(b)(3) ~ Drainage Into Secondary Containment; Areas Subject to Flooding
Facility drainage from undiked areas with a potential for discharge must be designed to flow into catchment. Examples of undiked areas include areas where single-walled piping is located outside containment walls, or where tank truck discharges may occur outside loading areas.
There are no undiked areas with a potential for discharge in the DFSP Point Loma Remediation System.
SPCC - Section 2 - Page 8
§ 112.8(b)(4) ~ Diversion Systems
In instances where facility drainage from undiked areas with a potential for discharge is not designed to flow into catchment, the final discharge of all ditches inside the facility should be equipped with a diversion system.
There are no undiked areas with a potential for discharge in the DFSP Point Loma Remediation System.
§ 112.8(b)(5) ~ Facility Drainage Systems/Lift Stations
Redundancy in “lift” pumps is required where pump transfer is needed to facilitate continuous treatment of drainage waters in multiple treatment units. The Facility drainage system is not equipped with lift stations and is under the jurisdiction of NBPL. The four sedimentation basins in place at the tank facility complex are not equipped with lift stations.
The DFSP Point Loma Remediation System does not have lift stations nor sediment basins.
§ 112.8(c) ~ Bulk Storage Containers
§ 112.8(c)(1) ~ Construction of and Materials Used for Containers
Oil storage containers at the DFSP Point Loma Remediation System are compatible with the oil being stored. Generally, welded steel drums conforming to DOT specifications and ASTs conforming to UL standard 142 specifications are used for storing the TPH-impacted groundwater and recovered NAPL. Operating equipment, such as utility owned transformers or electrical switches, are typically constructed of welded steel.
§ 112.8(c)(2) ~ Secondary Containment – Bulk Storage Containers
Bulk storage containers at DFSP Point Loma Remediation System are generally either double-walled or have secondary containment large enough to hold the largest container plus sufficient freeboard to allow for precipitation. Diked areas are sufficiently impervious to contain a discharge. In the site-specific write-ups in Section 3, the secondary containment structures of unsheltered single-walled ASTs have been checked to ensure containment of 100 percent of the contents of the largest tank plus additional freeboard to accommodate the
3.5 inches (24 hour) precipitation of the historical San Diego, CA 25-year storm event.
For secondary containment information for a specific site and container, refer to Section 3.
Table 2-1 summarizes all bulk storage containers (including those without oil or…
