Spill . . <br /> CountermeasuresNEWMONT •r the Cresson Project <br /> Sustainability& External Relations <br /> inside containment areas is reported to appropriate personnel.A documented inspection of the oil containers and <br /> secondary containment systems will be completed monthly.The results of the inspection will be recorded on the <br /> Monthly Inspection Sheets found in Appendix A. <br /> 4.1.7 Integrity Testing <br /> Leaks from tank seams,gaskets, hoses, and pumps are promptly corrected. Records of inspections and tests are <br /> signed by the inspector and kept at the facility for at least three years. <br /> Tank integrity testing will be performed according to the plan provided in Appendix G and the requirements <br /> summarized in Section 3.5.4. <br /> 4.1.8 Heating Coils <br /> This section is not applicable since there are no heating coils present at the facility. <br /> 4.1.9 Overfill Prevention Systems <br /> All tanks are equipped with level gauges. <br /> 55-gallon drums and 275 to 330-gallon totes are not equipped with level gauges or alarm devices.As dispensing of <br /> product from and into drums and totes is overseen by personnel, possible discharges are minimized. If a discharge <br /> does occur,spill control measures would be implemented. Many of these tanks are not refilled;they store new oil <br /> products that are only withdrawn from the drum or tote. Drums and totes that are filled with oils such as used oil <br /> are filled in small quantities and personnel are always present during this operation, in the event of any spills <br /> during filling. <br /> 4.1.10 Effluent Treatment Facilities <br /> There are no effluent treatment systems that discharge to navigable waters at this facility. <br /> Sanitary waste water is piped to septic vaults and are periodically pumped and transferred by truck to a Publicly <br /> Owned Treatment Works. <br /> 4.1.11 Visible Discharges <br /> Visible discharges from any container—including seams,gaskets, piping, pumps,valves, rivets,and bolts—are <br /> quickly corrected upon discovery.The CC&V staff who routinely work in each operating area of the facility are <br /> responsible for ensuring that equipment is repaired and spills or leaks are cleaned up using absorbent materials in <br /> the spill kit. <br /> 4.1.12 Piping <br /> There are no underground piping located at the facility. <br /> Piping systems associated with the tanks at this facility are designed and operated in such a manner to minimize <br /> potential oil discharges. <br /> Piping that is not in service, or in standby service for an extended time, is capped or blank-flanged at the transfer <br /> point and marked to prevent oil discharges. Pipe supports associated with the tanks are designed according to <br /> good engineering practices to minimize abrasion and corrosion, and to allow for expansion and contraction. <br /> Aboveground piping is supported by pedestals, hangers,or secured to a suitable structure.Tanks and piping are <br /> grounded as necessary. <br /> All aboveground piping and valves are inspected per the inspection protocol in this plan to assess their condition. <br /> Inspection includes aboveground valves, piping,appurtenances, expansion joints,valve glands and bodies, catch <br /> pans, pipeline supports, locking of valves,and metal surfaces. As required by the Steel Tank Institute,vents are <br /> installed on the tank system, and components such as vent covers, poppets, and emergency pressure relief <br /> --- ------------------_ _ , -__- <br /> Department THIS DOCUMENT IS UNCONTROLLED IN HARDCOPY FORMAT Doc Id:NA-CCV-SER-PLAN- <br /> 1930 <br />
