940.17 SPILL CONTROL PLANS.

   (a)   Nonresidential Facilities. Facility Operators required to develop a Spill Control Plan (SCP) must complete the plan no later than one hundred eighty (180) days after becoming subject to this requirement. The Public Utilities Director or designee may provide, at the request of the Facility Operator, a template of the SCP to facilitate development of the SCP. The SCP does not require the signature of a professional engineer. The SCP must be stored on site and made available on request to the Fire Department or other inspection authority.

   Any SCP developed in compliance with other federal, state, or local regulatory programs may satisfy the requirements of this provision provided that SCP contains all information specified in subsection (b) hereof. Any deficient information must be amended into the existing SCP to be considered compliant with this Section. If a preexisting SCP is being used to satisfy this requirement, only compliance with subsections (c) and (d) is required. Where applicable, one (1) copy of the SCP must be kept in the Facility's repository box (lock box).

   (b)   Content of the Spill Control Plan. The SCP must specify all of the following:

      (1)   Facility name, address, and phone;

      (2)   Facility Operator name and phone;

      (3)   Emergency contact and phone. Designation of an emergency contact must be done in accordance with Section 940.07(b);

      (4)   A brief description of the type of business conducted at the Facility; .

      (5)   The location of the Regulated Substance storage area(s) for which the SCP is being developed;

      (6)   The type(s) and normally anticipated quantity of Regulated Substance(s) stored in the Regulated Substance storage area(s) for which the plan is being developed;

      (7)   Potential hazards (including activities) to the Regulated Substance(s) stored in the area;

      (8)   All openings/routes through which a release from the storage area(s) would potentially flow into the Facility's property and within five hundred (500) feet beyond the property line, including floor drains, doorways, storm sewers, dry wells, streams, and other openings/routes;

      (9)   Emergency response procedures to be followed in the event of a release, including specific points of contact for releases, evacuation procedures, and emergency notification procedures for appropriate federal, state, and local agencies; and

      (10)   Emergency equipment available to the Facility Operator and location of equipment.

   (c)   Employee Training. A Facility Operator must train all employees annually on the release procedures outlined in the SCP. The Facility Operator must maintain a log of employee training and make the log available to the Director of Public Utilities or designee upon request. Copies of the SCP must be readily available for employee use in work areas in or near Regulated Substance storage areas.

   (d)   Updating the SCP. A Facility Operator must review and amend the SCP as necessary every two (2) years and when any of the following occur:

      (1)   There is a change in ownership or management at the Facility;

      (2)   An out-of-service AST system lacking secondary containment comparable to that required in Section 940.15 is returned to service; and/or

      (3)   Changes, structural or otherwise, are made at the Facility that will affect the anticipated flow direction of any release from the storage area or unit (ex: regrading of property, paving, building additions).

   (e)   Residential Spill Control. Any residence with a Regulated Substance storage unit required to have a Spill Control Plan shall receive information from the Public Utilities Director or designee on how to respond to a release from the storage unit as those units are registered. This information shall be provided in an easy to follow format. The owner of the Regulated Substance storage unit must keep any information related to spill control readily available in the event of a release. (Ord. 98-10-103. Passed 10-14-98.)
