Rvder Environmental Awareness
<br />copy of the Vehicle Spill Procedures Checklist is
<br />included in all Spill Response Booklets. Find a copy
<br />of the Spill Response Booklet at your location and
<br />make sure a copy of this checklist is included.
<br />The information on the Checklist should be reviewed
<br />with employees at hire and then again at least once
<br />per year.
<br />Important Note: Ryder policy requires that all"waIste
<br />materials. be handled by waste vendors approved by
<br />Ryder Environmental Services. Besureto arrange for
<br />proper disposal of all wastes and spill clean-up materials
<br />generated` during the clean-up. This includes soils
<br />pads, booms, wastewater, or snowmelt that have come
<br />in contact with the spilled materials. Do not allow any
<br />spill clean-up materials to be disposed of in a landfill.

<br />When a vehicle spill occurs involving a Ryder -owned
<br />vehicle, you must determine who holds the liability
<br />insurance on the vehicle. The parry holding the liability
<br />insurance is primarily responsible for managing the
<br />clean-up and making all regulatory notifications.
<br />BUT, regardless of the insurance, the vehicle owner
<br />and the vehicle operator both share responsibility
<br />for the spill clean-up.
<br />Sometimes it is not possible to determine whose
<br />insurance covers the vehicle before response actions
<br />must be taken. Take immediate action to protect
<br />personal safety and the environment by using
<br />resources available to stop the spill from spreading.
<br />Ryder Vehicle Spill Kits, located in the vehicle, are
<br />equipped with booms, pads, .plugs, and putty to
<br />assist in stopping a spill from spreading. Use the
<br />plugs and putty to temporarily patch a ruptured fuel
<br />tank or cross-over line. Apply the pads to the
<br />ground to absorb liquids prior to spreading. Use the
<br />booms to berm -off drains and waterways so that
<br />liquids spilled from the truck will be diverted
<br />AWAY FROM waterways, gullies, or storm drains.
<br />Facility and Vehicle Spill Kits are available from
<br />Brea International. Contact Breg for additional
<br />information and spill response supplies.

<br />Vehicle Spill Kits are equipped with bonding putty
<br />that can be applied to a ruptured or leaking fuel tank.
<br />3B putty jars are date-stamped but the shelf life is
<br />indefinite PROVIDED THAT the jar is properly
<br />sealed after it is opened. A proper seal can be created
<br />by placing clean lubricant, cream, or grease around
<br />the top of the jar prior to closing the lid. The lid
<br />should then be closed securely. The putty should be
<br />inspected every 6 months to ensure it has not dried
<br />out. If the putty does dry out, water can be added to
<br />make the putty pliable. If you need to replace the
<br />putty, the cost is $7.00 per jar. Refer to contact and
<br />ordering information above.. These instructions have
<br />been placed in all Vehicle Spill Kits that contain 3B
<br />putty. Please review and follow these guidelines to
<br />avoid costly mistakes.
<br />It is estimated that by using a Vehicle Spill Kit to con-
<br />trol and contain a vehicle fuel spill, you can reduce
<br />clean-up costs associated with spill remediation by
<br />more than 60%. So, that means instead of paying
<br />$10,000 - $12,000 for spill clean-up costs, you can
<br />reduce your costs to less than $4,000.
<br />FacilitySpill Procedures
<br />A copy of the Facility Spill Procedures Checklist is
<br />included in all Spill Response Booklets. Make sure a
<br />copy of this Checklist is included in your facility's
<br />Spill Response Booklet. Periodically call the emer-
<br />gency numbers and confirm they are still working and
<br />accurate.
