Recommended Practices for the Testing and Verification of Spill, Overfill, Leak Detection and Secondary Containment Equipment at UST Facilities <br />Handle and dispose of used spill cleanup and sorbent <br />materials according to instructions provided by the owner <br />or operator of the facility. Do not store contaminated <br />materials inside a building. <br />The owner or operator should report any spill or discharges <br />to the authority having jurisdiction (AHJ) as required <br />by law. In some locations, reporting to more than one <br />authority may be required. <br />3.10 Vehicle Hazards. Vehicles can present one of the <br />more serious and common safety hazards while working <br />at dispenser islands and areas where traffic is present at <br />UST facilities. Drivers often are distracted and inattentive <br />at UST facilities, and may not notice personnel conduct- <br />ing testing, maintenance or repair activities. <br />Take appropriate safety precautions prior to performing <br />any inspection, testing or maintenance of overfill, leak <br />detection and release prevention equipment. <br />Workers should wear high -visibility safety clothing while <br />working in areas where vehicle traffic may be present. <br />Use safety cones, barricades, warning signs and/or barrier <br />tape to designate and isolate work areas. Take care not to <br />place tools or equipment outside the designated area. Do <br />not remove safety equipment, barricades or signs until all <br />work is completed and equipment is ready to he returned <br />to service. <br />RECEIVED <br />DEC p 2019 <br />ENVIRONMENTAL H. <br />OEpARTMEM.r TH <br />pei.org 0 <br />
