12/27/2014 | STORM WATER AND SPILL CONTROL PRACTICES
GENERAL
· Utilize diking and other forms of containment and diversions around tanks,
drums, chemicals, liquids, pits, impoundments, or well pads. Alternatively secondary
containment may be provided around the entire perimeter of the location when
containment structures are not feasible in immediate vicinity of storage vessels.
· Use drip pans, sumps, or liners where appropriate
· Limit the amount of land disturbed during construction of pad, access road, and
facilities
· Employ spill response plan (SPCC) for all facilities
· Dispose properly offsite any wastes fluids and other materials
MATERIAL HANDLING, ACTIVITIES, PRACTICES AND STORM WATER
DIVERSION
· Secondary containment of tanks, drums, and storage areas is mandatory to
prohibit discharges to surface waters. A minimum of 110% capacity required of largest
storage tank within a containment area
· Material handling and spill prevention procedures and practices will be followed
to help prohibit discharges to surface waters
· Proper loading, and transportation procedures to be followed for all materials to
and from locations
EROSION CONTROL
· Pad and access road to be designed to minimize erosion
· Pad and access road to implement appropriate erosion control devices where
necessary to minimize erosion
· Routine inspections of sites and controls to be implemented with additions,
repairs, and optimization to occur as necessary to minimize erosion
SELF INSPECTION, MAINTENANCE, AND HOUSEKEEPING
· All employees are trained in spill response, good housekeeping, material
management practices, and procedures for equipment and container washing annually
· Conduct internal storm water inspections per applicable stormwater regulations
· Conduct routine informal inspections of all tanks and storage facilities at least
weekly
· All containment areas are to be inspected weekly or following a heavy rain
event.
· Any excessive precipitation accumulation within containment should be removed
as appropriate and disposed of properly
· All structural berms, dikes, and containment will be inspected periodically to
ensure they are operating correctly
SPILL RESPONSE
Spill response procedures as per the BBC field SPCC Plan
VEHICLE & LOCATION PROCEDURES
· Vehicles entering location are to be free of chemical, oil, mud, weeds, trash, and
debris
· Location to be treated to kill weeds and bladed when necessary |
