5.2.2 PCB (Polychlorinated Biphenyls) Storage Areas <br />• A PCB Management Program is defined in the May 1995 booklet entitled "Mine Emergency <br />Plan." This PCB Management Program covers the following PCB related issues; control, <br />documentation, training, spill control, clean-up procedures, and fires involving PCB equipment. <br />For purposes of the present SPCC/MCP Plan, pertinent sections of the above-mentioned PCB <br />Management Program have been extracted and outlined in the sections below. <br />Prior to 1997, Climax Mine uses PCB oil as an insulating and cooling medium in transformers <br />and capacitors. The Climax Mine Electrical Department is responsible for management of PCBs <br />onsite. Pending any unforeseen identification of PCB-containing equipment onsite, Climax <br />Mine has eliminated all PCB equipment as of January 1, 1998. Due to the fact that it is <br />possible to discover a piece of electrical gear containing PCBs, this SPCC/MCP addresses <br />how to handle such an occurrence. <br />~ • <br />40 <br />
