For mobile or potable containers, the type of oil and <br /> storage capacity for each container or an estimate of the potential number of mobile or portable containers, the types <br /> of oil, and anticipated storage capacities <br /> -discharge prevention measures including procedures for routine handling of products <br /> -discharge or drainage controls such as secondary containment, equipment, and procedures for the control of a <br /> discharge <br /> - countermeasures for discharge discovery, response, and cleanup <br /> - methods of disposal of recovered materials <br /> -contact list and phone numbers for the facility response coordinator, National Response Center, cleanup <br /> contractors, and all appropriate Federal, State, and local agencies. <br /> Immediately amend the SPCC Plan to include all required information. <br /> This is a repeat violation, Class II. <br /> 609 CFR 112.7(c) Failed to provide secondary containment, diversionary structures, or equipment to prevent discharge. <br /> Several large cracks were noted in the secondary containment structure that surrounds the four existing ASTs. 1, _ <br /> cracks were also observed during the 2015 facility inspection. No discussion on the adequacy of the secondary <br /> containment was provided in the reviewed SPCC plan dated October 2015. A facility shall provide appropriate <br /> containment and/or diversionary structures or equipment to prevent a discharge. The entire containment system, <br /> including walls and floor, must be capable of containing oil and must be constructed so that any discharge from a <br /> primary containment system will not escape the containment system before cleanup occurs. Immediately provide <br /> adequate secondary containment for all aboveground petroleum storage containers larger than 55 gallons. Submit <br /> proof of correction to the EHD. <br /> This is a repeat violation, Class 11. <br /> 613 CFR 112.7(e) Failed to conduct inspections or maintain records for 3 years. <br /> Copies of inspection and testing records were not found on site.

Inspections and tests must be conducted in accordance with the written <br /> procedures developed in the Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasure (SPCC) Plan. Records of these <br /> inspections and tests must be signed by the appropriate supervisor or inspector and kept on site with the SPCC Plan <br /> for a period of three years. Immediately locate a copy of all inspection and testing records for the last three years, <br /> maintain them on site, and submit copies to the EHD. <br /> This is a repeat violation, Class II. <br /> Page 4 of 7 <br />
