Spill Prevention Control and

Countermeasures Rule It is the oil pollution

prevention regulationpromulgated under theauthority of the FederalWater Pollution Control

Act (Clean Water Act)

The rule addressesrequirements for Spill

What is the SPCC Plan ?

SPCC is required by EPA if a facility canreasonably beexpected to dischargeharmful amounts of oil into navigablewaters of the United States or adjoiningshorelines


5/41

What Kinds of Oil are Included?

Under the SPCCregulations, oil is definedas "oil of any kind or inany form including, but notlimited to, petroleum, fuel

oil, sludge, oil refuse andoil mixed with wastesother than dredged spoiland oily mixtures."

This also includes non-petroleum oils, animal andvegetable oils.


6/41

Why Does UWM Need an SPCC Plan?

Because we meet thefollowing criteria outlinedin the regulations:

We have aggregateaboveground oil storagecapacity of more than 1,320gallons; and

Oil can be reasonablyexpected to enter intonavigable waters via floordrains and/or directly intostorm water catchment basins


7/41

Where is Oil Stored on Campus?

Aboveground tanks (Emergency

Generators)

Elevator hydraulic systems

High-Voltage Electric Equipment(transformers & switches)

Waste cooking oil drums

Fleet Garage used oil tank

Bulk laboratory solvent drums

Oil storage at UWM includes the following:

18/41

Who Must be Informed About the

SPCC Plan?

Any employee

involved in oil

handling,

transfer, storage,spill response or

maintenance of

oil equipment


19/41

SPCC Training Requirements

Training is provided at least annually toinform personnel involved in oil storage ormaintenance of tanks about proper actions totake in the event of a spill

Training updates will be conducted whenevera significant change has been made to any oilstorage (e.g., new tank installation)

Training will also be conducted whenever anew employee is assigned to oil handling,maintenance duties or spill response


20/41

Potential Spill Pathways

Oil can enter navigable

waters via:

Direct spills into

combined sewer

storm drains

Spills into a floor or

roof drain or other

conduit thatdischarges into the

combined sewer


21/41

Combined Sewers

Storm Sewers collect polluted runoff those

flows empty directly into rivers and lakes

Spill Scenarios: Large Release Potential

High Probability: Release from oil

delivery equipmentduring unloading at fillports

Leaking solventdrums

Low Probability Complete tank failure

Catastrophic FuelTanker failure duringdelivery


23/41

Spill Scenarios: Small Release Potential

High probability:

Minor overfill at fill port

Spills during transfer from drums

or containers

Low probability: Leaking or failure of piping and

pumpsif properinspection &

maintenance schedule is

followed

Leaking or failure of drumsif

proper inspection &

maintenance schedule is

followed


24/41

SPCC Program Goals

1. SPILL PREVENTIONAchieved through installation of requiredequipment, timely repair of malfunctioningsystems, regular inspections, good materialhandling & fueling practices

2. SPILL CONTROLAchieved through monitoring of leak detectionsystems, proper reporting & ensuringcontainment systems are functional

3. SPILL COUNTERMEASURESAchieved through quick spill response


25/41

Spill Prevention Inspections

Document monthlyinspections with log sheet

Maintain and repair

equipment as needed

Review monthly inspectionlogs to follow-up on corrective

actions

retaining walls & berms

Report all spills & unusual

observations to your

supervisor, who will notify

University Safety & Assurances

Ensure all Spill Containment structures are inplace and operational:

S C


33/41

Spill Prevention Control Measures:

Secondary Containment Secondary

containment must besufficiently impervious

to contain oil

Berms or dikes musthave oil holding

capacity calculations

done and these must

be kept on record aslong as they are in use


34/41

Spill Response Discovery of Release

Extinguish any source ofignition

Cordon off the area

Identify material released

Attempt to stop release at itssource

Reference Material Safety

Data Sheet

Initiate spill notification and

reporting procedures


35/41

Spill Response Containment & Follow-up

Contain the material released into

the environment Recover or clean up the material

spilled

Clean up the spill area

Decontaminate tools andequipment

Arrange for proper disposal ofwaste materials

Notifications and reports tooutside agencies(SPCC Coordinators)

Review SPCC Plan toevaluate/improve response

What is a Release to the Environment?

Wisconsin Emergency Management defines arelease to the environment as follows:

Any amount of oil that produces a sheen onwater and/or threatens navigable waters,

including drainage ditches One gallon or more of a flammable liquid(such as

gasoline) onto unpaved ground

5 gallons or more of a combustible liquids(such

as diesel fuel or mineral oil) onto unpaved ground A discharge of a federally listed substance in

excess of its reportable quantity


39/41

Spill Reporting & Documentation

The SPCC Coordinators willprepare a report forany large spillor spill that impacts public health,safety or the environment.

Reports must include:

Date, time and duration of release Type of incident

Materials involved

Extent of injuries

Assessment of potential hazards

Disposition of recovered materials SPCC Plan discrepancies

Steps to prevent similar incidents


40/41

Closing Out a Spill

A spill report will be completed by the SPCCCoordinator, reviewed with the affected parties,signed and filed with University Safety &

Assurances

Important: Discuss what can and should be done to preventanother occurrence

Was the response quick and effective?

Should anything be done to enhance the responsesystem?

Very Important! Re-stock spill kits with replacementitems and additional items if necessary
