There is an open bermed and lined storage area adjacent to (west of) the Crusher Oil Storage Shed. <br />This storage area is primarily for empty totes, tanks, and drums of grease and oil. <br />Located to the east of the Crusher Oil Storage Shed is a 5,000 - gallon propane tank. <br />Hydraulic oil, greases, and lubricants used for maintenance of the crushers are stored in 55- gallon <br />drums, five - gallon buckets, tanks, and totes near the Primary and Secondary Crushers. A portable <br />lubricating unit (approx. 67 gallon capacity) operates throughout the Secondary Crusher building, and <br />a variety of greases and oils are stored in totes and drums on the ground floor. <br />4.1.4.2 Quantities of Material Stored and Secondary Containment at the Crusher Facilities <br />Almost 6,000 gallons of storage capacity exists in the Crusher Oil Storage Shed and the adjacent <br />open containment area. The shed and the adjacent storage area both have secondary containment <br />structures with respective volumes of 270 gallons (grated pallets) and 14,000 gallons (lined and <br />bermed containment cell). <br />The steel aerosol can puncturing device mounted on a 55- gallon drum at the Crusher Maintenance <br />Shop is contained within a 95- gallon overpack drum. <br />Totes and drums, containing lubricants at the crusher buildings have no secondary containment other <br />than the concrete slab floors of the buildings. Given the viscous nature of these lubricants, any spill <br />would be contained within the building <br />4.1.4.3 Spill Potential of Oils and Greases at the Crusher Facilities <br />Most of the greases used for lubricating the mechanical devices within the crushing facilities are <br />heavy, viscous, dense greases that are unlikely to spill. In the unlikely event of a grease tote or tank <br />rupture the grease is so resistant to flow that it would not migrate more than several feet from the <br />storage vessel. Therefore, significant spillage of greases is not expected to be a problem. <br />Hydraulic oils used in the crushers represent a potential spill threat, although hydraulic oil is stored <br />and used at locations that are underlain by a concrete slab, where the spill could be easily cleaned - <br />up. The most likely amount spilled would be on the order of <10 to 100 gallons. <br />4.1.4.4 Spill Prevention and Control at the Crusher Facilities <br />Extensive use of hydraulic oil occurs in the Crusher areas. The most important activity to prevent <br />spills of hydraulic oil at the Crusher Facilities is operator care in the transfer of fluids, using common <br />sense and diligence in making sure connections are secure, drip pans are in place, and containers <br />are positioned to receive fluids properly. <br />Runoff from areas surrounding the Crusher Facilities flows to holding ponds where any oil spilled can <br />be skimmed prior to release. Even though catchment of runoff is provided, special care will be <br />exercised to prevent hydraulic oils from migrating to areas outside the crushers. <br />Used oil generated at the Crushers are temporarily stored in drums or totes, and then hauled to the <br />Ironclad Facilities for use as heating fuel or for shipment to an off-site disposal /recycling facility. Used <br />greases stored in drums are hauled to the Ironclad Facilities for shipping to an off -site disposal facility. <br />4.1.4.5 Spill Countermeasures (Clean -up Procedures) at the Crusher Facilities <br />Section 3.2 provides the general spill response procedures for use at the Crushers.
