<br />5.2 Preventative Maintenance <br />Preventative maintenance (PM) programs will be developed and maintained by the <br />Manager of Plant Maintenance. The PM programs will include more than mechanical <br />maintenance on process equipment. Procedures such as visual checks of material <br />storage containers and piping, testing of containment structural integrity, observations <br />of housekeeping, inspections of fire extinguishers, chemical inventory, and restocking <br />spill containment materials will also be included in the PM program. <br />5.3 Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDSsI <br />The manufacturers of hazardous chemicals will provide MSDS to American Soda. <br />American Soda will review hazardous ingredients; PPE, handling, and storage <br />requirements; spill response recommendations; and disposal regulations. This data will <br />be provided to all American Soda employees in a comprehensive training program. <br />Furthermore, as required by EPCRA Section 311, American Soda will provide copies of <br />MSDSs to the local fire departments and other outside responders. [t is important for <br />responders to know where, and in what quantity, hazardous chemicals are stored. <br />5.4 Containment <br />Hazardous chemicals will be stored in containers recommended on the MSDS. <br />Containers will also be equipped with secondary containment structures where <br />necessary. Hazardous chemicals that are not compatible with each other (i.e. strong <br />acids and strong bases) will not be stored together. <br />Unleaded gasoline and diesel storage tanks will be constructed of appropriate materials <br />and will be installed on bermed concrete areas. The volume of the bermed area will be <br />sufficient to contain the volume of the largest storage container. <br />5.5 Labeline <br />Manufacturers of hazardous chemicals are required to label their products <br />appropriately, which means hazards are clearly listed as well as emergency phone <br />numbers. If incoming shipments of hazardous chemicals have damaged labels, <br />American Soda will re-label containers as needed. In instances where American Soda <br />transfers a material from the original container to another container, [~lational Fire <br />Protection Association (NFPA) labeling will be implemented. NFPA labeling includes <br />ratings for health, fire, reactivity, and specific hazards. <br />If hazardous wastes are generated on site, labeling of waste containers will follow the <br />requirements outlined in 40CFR Part 262. Labeling would include a hazard <br />15 <br />Prehmmary Response Plan <br />Yankee Gulch Sodmm Minerals Protect <br />American Soda, L.L.P. <br />
