The berm is constructed of materials <br /> containing a minimum of 15% clay passing the No. 200 sieve, or lined with a visqueen or <br /> similar liner. If constructed around the diesel trailer, the berm is constructed in such a <br /> manner as to have a minimum of 11,000 gallons capacity to contain the volume of the largest <br /> tank plus an allowance for precipitation. If the volume of the largest tank is increased or <br /> decreased, the Plant Manager will adjust the berm containment volume accordingly. If the <br /> berm was to overflow, any fluids would be contained within the overall plant site which is <br /> situated at least 2 feet below grade to prevent any discharge outside the plant area. <br /> Potential Spill #2: Failure of a 30,000-Gallon Asphalt Cement (AC) Tank <br /> There are two AC tanks associated with the Gencor plant. AC requires heat to be viscous. <br /> The AC is heated for use in the asphalt concrete mix. At temperatures of 100°F or less such <br /> as would be experienced outside the tank, the asphalt cement becomes viscous and flows <br /> quite slowly. Spills would not flow very far from the tank nor penetrate into the subgrade to <br /> any significant depths. Plus, any fluids would be contained within the overall plant site which <br /> is situated at least 2 feet below grade to prevent any discharge outside the plant area. <br /> Portable Gencor Asphalt Plant Page 4 <br /> SPCC Plan August 31, 2005 <br />
