d. Aboveground Piping _ <br /> i. Waste Oil Tank: Waste Oil Source 2 has a short aboveground pipeline that enables waste oil to be pumped <br /> into the tank. The line is charged only when waste oil is being pumped into the tank, which occurs only when <br /> a technician is present to operate the pump. Should the technician detect any problem, such as an audible <br /> overfill alarm or other evidence of spillage,the technician will immediately turn off the pump and notify his or <br /> her supervisor. If the pump is inadvertently activated in the absence of a technician, it will pump only air. <br /> ii. Lubricating and Transmission Oil: New Oil Source 3, ATF Source 4, are tied into a system of overhead <br /> distribution lines within their specific facility. These lines are pressurized by air driven pumps mounted on the <br /> tanks and provide lubricating oil to individual work areas. An unattended failure of one of these lines could <br /> result in the entire contents of one of these tanks emptying onto the shop floor. The distribution lines are <br /> mounted on the shop ceiling and are at a height that will protect them from passing vehicles. All pumps are <br /> shut down (air compressor turned off and air lines bled) at the end of each workday, thus preventing any <br /> significant release during nonworking hours. During work hours, the area in which these lines run is <br /> continuously staffed by service technicians. Any pipe failure would be immediately known and the respective <br /> pump promptly shut off and secured. <br /> iii. Gasoline: Gasoline Source 1 has a short aboveground pipe attaching the fuel dispensing pump to the tank. Fuel <br /> is moved through the line by a hydraulic pump which is integrated into the fuel pumping system. The pump is <br /> controlled manually by the user operating the fuel nozzle. Any pipe failure would immediately be obvious and <br /> the user can either turn off the pump, or use the emergency fuel shut off switch. <br /> e. Containment Drainage: All sources are either fully enclosed, double wall tanks, or are located under a roof where <br /> rainwater accumulation is not an issue. <br /> 4. Material Compatibility: The materials and construction of all petroleum bulk storage tanks and containers are <br /> compatible with the substances stored and the conditions of storage. <br /> 5. Tank Truck Loading/Offloading: Tank truck operators are expected to comply with regulations established by the <br /> Department of Transportation. In particular,the following procedures are observed during the filling or pump-out of all <br /> tanks. <br /> a. Smoking is prohibited while dispensing or loading petroleum products. <br /> b. The delivery/collection truck driver remains with the vehicle at all times while loading/unloading. <br /> c. Each delivery/pickup is supervised by the delivery/pickup driver and overseen by a competent facility <br /> representative. Throughout the process, each party must be alert, have unobstructed view of the delivery/pickup <br /> vehicle and the storage tank,and be within 25 feet of each. Unless the truck engine is waste to power a loading/off- <br /> loading pump, no flammable liquid is to be transferred while the engine is running. <br /> d. The facility representative ensures that the delivery/pickup vehicle is properly parked in an area designated for that <br /> purpose, and that the driver has provided a physical barrier, warning sign, or other appropriate device to prevent <br /> interference from lot traffic. The vehicle is also chocked to prevent it from departing before complete disconnection <br /> of transfer lines. <br /> e. Containment socks and/or absorbent materials are maintained nearby in case of any unexpected release. In the event <br /> of a release,those items shall be employed as specified in Attachment(C). <br /> f. The unloading of product into a tank reservoir does not begin until the level in the tank is checked and it is verified <br /> that the tank has sufficient capacity to receive the volume of product to be transferred. <br /> g. If product transfer is via a gravity fed line: when transfer is complete, the drain valve on the truck is closed and <br /> inspected for leakage, and residual amounts of product remaining in the unloading line are drained into the tank <br /> before disconnecting the unloading line. <br /> Tracy Chevrolet SPCC Plan <br /> 08-14 <br />
