pump turns on and off as fuel is added to the tanks. The gasoline storage tank has a level indicator, <br />but is not configured into the high -level alarm system. <br />To control releases during product transfer at the fuel pumps, secondary catchment pads were <br />constructed to contain spills that may occur during heavy equipment fueling. This concrete pad <br />slopes inward to a grated opening over a sump. An attached pad serves the gasoline pump and <br />drains spillage into the sump for the heavy equipment fueling area. Run-on of storm water is limited <br />through grading of the surrounding area. Transfer hoses are not allowed to extend to areas where <br />spills cannot be contained by the concrete pad. Vehicles, especially the mobile maintenance <br />vehicles, must be oriented on the pads during fueling to achieve spill containment. The catchment pad <br />is cleaned as needed to allow spillage to flow toward the grated sump. The sump is maintained to <br />provide storage volume for spilled product and collected rainwater. Operators are trained to be aware <br />of any leaks and to dose valves or catch the errant fluid in containers to prevent contamination of <br />soils. <br />Transfers of petroleum products and antifreeze wNI be attended at all times by the equipment <br />operators or transporters to monitor for leaks and/or spillage. Chocks will be used by operators to <br />prevent unexpected movement of vehicles during re- fueling. Barricades are in place to prevent the <br />accidental collision of vehicles with pumps and dispensing facilities. <br />Where product transfers occur outside of Tined concrete areas, containment buckets, drip trays or <br />absorbents will be used to catch spillage. Captured fluids will be disposed of in the used oil tank or as <br />directed by Environmental Resources. <br />4.1.3.5 Spill Countermeasures (Clean -up Procedures) at the Fuel Farm <br />Section 3.2 provides the general spill response procedures for use at the Fuel Farm. The following <br />narrative provides additional detail on spill clean up. <br />Clean -up of Small Sail's <br />Clean up of small spills can be addressed with sorbent materials (pads, oil dry, "kitty litter ", and/or <br />sand) by placing these materials directly into the spilled pool of oil or antifreeze. Sorbent pads that <br />have been used to remove petroleum products, including fuels, antifreeze, and oils, can be disposed <br />of as a conventional solid waste and can be placed into the commercial solid waste containers <br />(dumpsters) at various locations around the property, provided no solvents or other potentially <br />hazardous wastes have been added. Sorbent materials that have been saturated with oil but are not <br />dripping can be disposed as conventional solid waste. <br />Leaks or spills of petroleum products during transport or during product transfer will create an oil stain <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 be <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 />Water captured inside the Fuel Farm secondary containment cells will be removed on a regular basis. <br />If the water has an oily sheen, It will be removed and treated through the oil skimmer located at the <br />Truck Shop Wash Bays. Absorbent pads are available in the warehouse and on mobile fuel/lubricant <br />trucks to assist in cleaning up minor spills. <br />Free liquids with an oily sheen that are collected in the Fuel Farm sumps will be pumped into <br />appropriate containers. Oily liquids will be hauled to the oil skimmer sump located at the New Truck <br />Shop Wash Bay or shipped off site for recycle. <br />Liquids that contain antifreeze will be place in drums and shipped off site to a recycling facility. <br />Larne Spills Outside of Containment Structures <br />Available earth- moving equipment will be used to excavate a trench and sump system to retain the <br />Spill Response Plan August 17.2010 <br />EMS: AGANAlCCV Doc. # E-006 <br />G:1EMS\PIans\Emergency Response Plans\SRP Plan1SRP Plan.doc Revision 05 <br />Printed Copies are Uncontrolled <br />20 <br />
