Clean-up of Spills at the Crusher Facilities <br />Clean up of spills can be addressed with sorbent materials (pads, oil dry, "kitty litter", and/or sand) by <br />placing these materials directly into the spilled pool of oil or grease. sorbent pads that have been <br />• used to remove petroleum products, including greases and oils, can be disposed of as a conventional <br />solid waste and can be placed into the commercial solid waste containers (dumpsters) at various <br />locations around the property, provided no solvents or other potentially hazardous wastes have been <br />added. sorbent materials that have been saturated with oil but are not dripping can be disposed as <br />conventional solid waste. <br />Leaks or spills of petroleum products during transport or during product transfer will create an oil stailn <br />on the ground surface. CC&V's clean-up policy is as follows: If the majority (>50%) of the area <br />consisting of 9 square feet (3 feet by 3 feet) is affected (stained), then the affected area will b'e <br />removed (i.e., the soil and oil mixture) and placed in the blast hole stemming material pile or as <br />directed by the Environmental Resources Department. <br />Free liquids with an oily sheen that are collected at the Crusher Facilities, will be pumped into <br />appropriate containers. Oily liquids will be hauled to the oil-water separator located at the New Truck <br />Shop Wash Bay or shipped off site for disposal. <br />I <br />4.1.4.6 Inspections and Tank Integrity Testing at the Crusher Facilities <br />All tanks and containers >55 gallons capacity at the Crusher Facilities will be inspected on a monthly <br />basis and the form in Appendix G will be used to document the inspection. Records of these <br />inspections will be kept on file in the Environmental Resources Department. <br />Tank integrity testing will be performed according to the plan provided in Appendix J. <br />4.1.4.7 Conformance with Regulations at the Crusher Facilities <br />• Applicable state and local guidelines are assumed to be the same as the Federal Regulations at 40 <br />CFR Part 112, and therefore,. under 40 CFR Part 112 the oil storage containers and secondary <br />containment at the Crusher Facilities meet the intent of the oil pollution prevention regulations. <br />4.1.5 Mobile Maintenance and Mine Equipment Fleet <br />Fuel trucks and service trucks are used at CC&V to supply the mine's heavy equipment and <br />earthmoving fleet with fuel and other petroleum products: In addition, other large machines operating <br />onsite contain significant quantities of oil and fuel and therefore are covered in this section of the <br />SRP/SPCC. Operating equipment or mobile equipment, for inclusion in this SRP/SPCC Plan, will <br />refer to those vehicles that have oil in individual tanks with capacities of 55 gallons or greater. Thi's <br />determination is based on page 47044 of the July 17, 2002 Federal Register "Summary of Major <br />Revisions to the Current SPCC Rules" table which states that the threshold (1320 gallons in <br />containers greater than 55 gallons) applies fo storage capacity contained in operating equipment as <br />well as to storage capacity contained in tanks. Further definition and additional justification for thi's <br />determination is found on page 47066 of the same Federal Register where it states that "You need <br />only count containers of 55 gallons or greater in the calculation of the regulatory threshold." Various <br />types of mobile equipment containing greater than 55 gallons of oil are used at the CCV. The table In <br />Appendix C provides a list of the types of equipment and tank capacities for the equipment. <br />4.1.5.1 Storage and Use of Petroleum Products in Mobile Equipment <br />Service trucks haul petroleum products including diesel fuel, antifreeze, motor oil, lubricating greases, <br />and hydraulic oil to supply mine operations equipment. Other mobile equipment such as dozers, <br />loaders, haul trucks, drills, water trucks, graders, etc. store or use diesel fuel, hydraulic oil, motor oil, <br />_ and antifreeze. <br />• Spill Response Plan September 25, 2006 <br />EMS: AGANA/CCVS`.\4010-00055 CC & V 112(d) Permit Application\ERP, SPCC, FMP\SRP_05-06.doc Doc. # E-006 <br />S:\4010-00055 CC & V 112(d) Permit Application\ERP, SPCC, FMP\SRP_05-06.doc Revision 03 <br />Printed Copies are Uncontrolled <br />23 <br />
