Page 4 1.H Conformance In accordance with §112.7(a)1 and§112.76) The state of California, HSC §25270.4.5, states that an owner or operator of a storage tank facility shall prepare a Spill Prevention Control and Countermeasure Plan (SPCC Plan) prepared in accordance Title 40 of the Code of Regulations, Part 112. This SPCC plan was written to conform with 40 CFR part 112 requirements. The facility therefore conforms with general requirements for oil storing facilities in California. PART 2. SPILL RESPONSE AND REPORTING 2.A Spill History In accordance with§112.7 In 2006, an overflow occurred at the grease trap tank located in Area B, see Appendix A, Figure A-4. The tank lid was open and heavy rain caused the tank to overflow. Measures to prevent any material from entering the storm drain system were instituted immediately. Absorbent material was used to solidify the spill and the material was then vacuumed and disposed of off- site. Lastly, the sidewalk and gutters were steam cleaned and the run-off was collected and disposed of off-site. There have been no other spills within the operating history of Dameron Hospital. 2.113 Spill Response Materials In accordance with§112.7(a)5 Each described area has a designated location where the spill response equipment is located. The location is labeled in Appendix A, Figures A-3 through A-5. The response equipment inventory for each facility includes: • Clean absorbent material • Absorbent waddles to contain any spilled material • Quick dry materials • Various brooms and shovels • Clean and empty 55-gallon drums for the liquid waste. 2.0 Spill Mitigation Procedures In accordance with§112.7(a)5 The following is a summary of actions taken in the event of a spill: 1. Check- Check the container or MSDS for instructions. Safety first, last and always. 2. Evacuate - Evacuate everyone from the area surrounding the spill (the entire room, if necessary); except for those responsible for the spill clean-up. Secure area and deny entry. 3. Personal Protective Equipment - If not already worn, put on personal protective equipment. 4. Confine Spill-Confine spill to initial spill area using appropriate control equipment and material.
