These areas are: <br />1. The fuel and oil storage containment area near the shop (See Section 2.0). <br />2. The drum storage shed near the shop (See Section 2.0). <br />3. The fuel and oil storage containment areas near the pit (See Section 2.0). <br />The combination of containment and site grading should prevent the discharge of oil from the facility as <br />a result of a spill. <br />In the fuel and oil storage containment area near the shop, spills due to equipment failure could <br />potentially occur at the tartks or in filling the tanks. If a fuel or oil tank was to leak, the material could be <br />expected to be contained within the concrete containment. If the tank truck delivering fuel or oil was to <br />leak, the material would be expected to flow across the ground surface or seep into the sotl to the surface <br />depression west of the tanks. In addition, when tank trucks aze being unloaded, the procedure is to be <br />attended to minimize the potential for spills and respond quickly to a spill. The fuel tank trucks <br />reportedly have a volume of approximately 8,500 gallons in three compartments. Therefore, the total <br />
