SPCC - Spill Prevention Control and Countermeasure Plan
|
ARE YOU UP-TO-DATE WITH YOUR SPCC PLANS?
- Title 40 Code of Federal
Regulations, Part 112 requires a Spill Prevention Control and
Countermeasure Plan be prepared for each oil and gas production
facility.
- Administered under the
authority of the EPA, these regulations require the operator of the
facility to prepare and implement a plan to prevent a discharge of oil
into the waters of the United States and to provide for rapid response
and clean-up should a discharge occur.
- The District office has a
copy of an informative booklet published by the EPA describing SPCC
Plans which may be copied; or you can contact the EPA direct at 1445
Ross Avenue, Dallas, TX 75202. (http://www.epa.gov/oilspill/)
- The American Petroleum
Institute has a publication, API Bulletin D 14, 'Suggested
Procedures for Development of Spill Prevention Control and
Countermeasure Plans' which describes the preparation of these plans. (http://www.api.org/cat/)
- For any spill at an oil or
gas producing facility, immediately call the local CES or the District
Office, and the National Response Center at 1-800-424-8802. Within one hour call the State
Police at 1-877-925-6595.
