Good Housekeeping -Good housekeeping requires the maintenance of a clean, orderly facility. <br />This part of the SWiY1P shall address cleaning and maintenance schedules, trash disposal and <br />coIIection practices, grounds maintenance, etc. <br />Most facilities already adhere to some form of "Good Housekeeping" routine, whether they realize it or not. <br />Industries must now put these practices down in writing and ensure that they aze adequate to meet the needs of the <br />ity. To prepaze this section, begin by sLmmari~ing any activities which already take place, such as trash <br />_.mloval, oil recycling, etc. <br />Most good housekeeping practices involve simple common sense. The basic pollution prevention concept is that a <br />clean site will have less potential for stormwater contamination. The fallowing checklist can serve as a starting <br />point far the assessment of existing good housekeeping practices: <br />- aze outside azeas kept in a neat and orderly condirion? <br />- is there evidence of drips or leaks from equipment or machinery at the site? <br />- is garbage removed regularly? <br />- aze proper clean-up procedures used for spilled materials? <br />- aze there abandoned machinery, parts, etc, around the site? <br />- is every effort [Wade to order only materials that are required, thus m;n;m;~irt~ the amounts of materials stored? <br />- what other practices routinely performed constitute good housekeeping? (For example, aze maintenance and <br />emergency response vehicles usually stored indoors?) <br />Set up a general Good Housekeeping plan with as many of the following items as possible, plus any additional <br />items pertinent [o the site, or new ideas which aze not included in the list. The Good Housekeeping plan can then <br />be referred to later in the discussion on BblPs. <br />The following items are typical eramples of information to include in a Good Housekeeping plan: <br />"ration and Maintenance Techniques <br />- gazbage and waste materials must be picked up and disposed of reguarly. <br />
