Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasure Plans
When you need a Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasure Plan (or SPCC for short), KPA can help. KPA can prepare plans that meet 40 CFR 112 regulations and are cost-effective for your business, identifying those sites that require SPCC plans and which sites do not require a plan. The goal of these plans is to address what an organization is doing to prevent oil spills and outline how they are preparing in case of a spill.
Topics your SPCC must cover include:
- Operating procedures at the facility to prevent oil spills
- Control measures (such as secondary containment) installed to prevent oil spills from impacting waters
- Countermeasures to contain, clean up, and mitigate the effects of an oil spill that has impacted waters
Topics your SPCC may want to cover include:
- Use of appropriate storage and transportation containers
- Alarm (or similar device) use to prevent overfilling these containers
- Periodic inspection plans for all containers, pipes, and other objects used to prevent oil spills
- Replacement plan for worn, weakened, or broken containers, pipes, and other objects used to prevent oil spills as they are identified
