The facility inspections described in the SPCC plan are not being conducted, as stated by facility personnel. Inspections and testing shall be conducted on all aboveground liquid petroleum containers larger than 55 gallons, including tanks which are empty but do not meet the definition of permanently closed and all 55 gallon drums of oil. Records of these inspections and tests shall be signed by the appropriate supervisor or inspector and kept on site with the Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasure(SPCC)Plan for a period of three years. Immediately begin necessary testing and inspections for all Aboveground Petroleum Storage Act regulated containers and maintain on site with the SPCC Plan. This is a Class II violation. 630 CFR 112.7(k) Failure to provide general secondary containment or alternative for oil-filled operational equipment. The SPCC plan exempts listed operational equipment from the general secondary containment requirements and chose to follow the alternative requirements to general secondary containment for operational equipment.The contingency plan in the SPCC plan does not include an oil spill contingency plan following the provisions of part 109 of chapter 40 of the Code of Federal Regulations. Qualified Oil-filled Operational Equipment.The owner or operator of a facility with oil-filled operational equipment that meets the qualification criteria in paragraph(k)(1)of this sub-section may choose to implement for this qualified oil-filled operational equipment the alternate requirements as described in paragraph(k)(2)of this sub-section in lieu of general secondary containment required in paragraph (c)of this section. (1)Qualification Criteria—Reportable Discharge History: The owner or operator of a facility that has had no single discharge as described in§112.1(b)from any oil-filled operational equipment exceeding 1,000 U.S.gallons or no two discharges as described in§112.1(b)from any oil-filled operational equipment each exceeding 42 U.S. gallons within any twelve month period in the three years prior to the SPCC Plan certification date,or since becoming subject to this part if the facility has been in operation for less than three years(other than oil discharges as described in§112.1(b) that are the result of natural disasters, acts of war or terrorism); and (2)Alternative Requirements to General Secondary Containment. If secondary containment is not provided for qualified oil-filled operational equipment pursuant to paragraph(c)of this section,the owner or operator of a facility with qualified oil-filled operational equipment must: (i) Establish and document the facility procedures for inspections or a monitoring program to detect equipment failure and/or a discharge; and (ii)Unless you have submitted a response plan under§112.20, provide in your Plan the following: (A)An oil spill contingency plan following the provisions of part 109 of this chapter. (B)A written commitment of manpower, equipment, and materials required to expeditiously control and remove any quantity of oil discharged that may be harmful. The plan should address general secondary containment as required by regulations, or meet all the requirements for alternative measures, as required by regulations.A contingency plan that meets the requirements of Part 109 of CFR Chapter 40 may need to be developed or general secondary requirements met. Note: Most of the oil-filled operational equipment was observed with general secondary containment. This is a minor violation.
