• the facility is non-transportation-related • the aboveground storage capacity of a single container is in excess of 660 gallons or the aggregate aboveground storage capacity is 1,320 gallons or greater, or the total underground storage capacity is greater than 42,000 gallons • due to the location of the facility, oil that is spilled could reasonably reach waters of the U.S. American Soda plans to store diesel fuel and unleaded gasoline at both the Piceance and Parachute Sites. The volumes of the aboveground tanks will be: • Piceance Diesel Fuel Tank approximately 500 gallons • Piceance Unleaded Gasoline Tank approximately 500 gallons • Total Aboveground Storage Capacity approximately 1,000 gallons • Parachute Diesel Fuel Tank approximately 500 gallons • Parachute Unleaded Gasoline Tank approximately 500 gallons • Total Aboveground Storage Capacity approximately 1,000 gallons It is possible that American Soda's maintenance department may use additional oil and oil products (5-gallon buckets and/or 55-gallon drums) for various purposes. If this is the case, American Soda will include those volumes in the calculation of the total storage volume of oil and oil products. American Soda does not plan to exceed the SPCC volume threshold. Therefore, an SPCC Plan will not be required for the Yankee Gulch Project. American Soda personnel will complete periodic reviews of oil and oil product storage to determine if the SPCC requirements will apply at a later date. 3.4 OSHA Emergency Action and Fire Prevention Plan OSHA Site Emergency Plans are required for all U.S. employers to ensure employee safety from fire and other emergencies. The requirements of the plan generally follow the requirements of other plans; however, the plan focuses on fire prevention rather than chemical safety. A general outline of the OSHA Site Emergency Plan, which will be completed prior to startup, is provided in Appendix C. This preliminary Response Plan contains many of the items, although does not provide detailed fire response measures. Fire response measures will be developed in consultation with a fire insurance company and the local fire departments. 7 Preliminary Response Plan Yankee Gulch Sodium Minerals ProleR American Suda, L.L.P.
