2.0 INTRODUCTION The University of California, Santa Barbara (UCSB) has developed this Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasures (SPCC) Plan in accordance with the provisions of Title 40, Code of Federal Regulations, Part 112 (40 CFR 112), Oil Pollution Prevention, and the California Health and Safety Code, Division 20, Chapter 6.67, Section 25270, which is also referred to as the Aboveground Petroleum Storage Act (APSA). In response to accidental releases of oil that occurred in the late 1980s and that caused extensive pollution of the Monongahela River in Pennsylvania and Alaska’s Prince William Sound, the federal government enacted the Oil Pollution Act of 1990 (OPA) that mandated the establishment of procedures, methods, equipment, and other requirements to prevent the discharge of oil into or upon the navigable waters of the United States or adjoining shorelines. As the administering agency, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) requires the preparation of an SPCC Plan by any facility that:

Gathers, stores, processes, transfers, distributes, uses, or consumes oil and oil products, which due to its location, could reasonably be expected to discharge oil in quantities that may be harmful into or upon the navigable waters of the United States or adjoining shorelines.

Contains any aboveground container, any container in a vault which is considered an aboveground storage container, any operating equipment that have a capacity of greater than 1,320 gallons individually or in the aggregate.

Accordingly, since the aggregation of aboveground oil storage containers on the UCSB campus that exceed 55 gallons capacity is greater than the 1,320 gallon threshold and given the University’s proximity to navigable waters of the United States, this plan is required by both federal and California regulations. 2.1 PURPOSE

The objectives of this SPCC are to define the spill prevention, control, and countermeasures implemented by UCSB Environmental Health & Safety (EH&S) Department for the UCSB facility. The SPCC is an integral part in establishing an efficient and effective spill prevention program. The SPCC Plan addresses the following topics:

Applicability.

General Management Guidelines.

Bulk Storage Tanks.

Integrity and Tightness Testing.

Maintenance.

Inspection Requirements.

Secondary Containment.

Requirements for Tank Truck Loading/Unloading Racks.

Management of Facility Transfer Operations and Equipment.

Overfill Protection.

Storage Facility Drainage.

Security.

Contingency Planning.

SPCC Plan Review and Amendments. 2.2 SPCC PLAN ORGANIZATION

This SPCC Plan contains a description of the oil storage facilities on the UCSB campus and the containment and countermeasure safeguards and procedures that are in effect to prevent an accidental release of oil in harmful quantities, as defined in 40 CFR 110.3 and 112.1(b), into the navigable waters of the United States. Table 2-1, Required Elements of the SPCC Plan, lists the required elements and their location within this Plan. Where experience indicates a reasonable potential for an equipment failure (such as tank overflow, rupture, or leakage), 40 CFR 112.7(b) requires that the SPCC Plan include a prediction of the direction, rate of flow, and total quantity of oil that could be discharged. Based on a review of past spill events, the potential for equipment failure that would result in a discharge of oil in quantities that are potentially harmful to the public health or welfare or to the environment as defined in 40 CFR 110.3 has not been established at the UCSB campus. Paragraph 40 CFR 112.7 (i) requires that it is necessary to take appropriate action if a field-constructed aboveground container undergoes an alteration that might affect the risk of a discharge due to brittle fracture. There are no field-constructed tanks on the UCSB campus; therefore, the requirement for evaluating the potential for brittle fracture is not applicable. 2.3 REGULATORY BACKGROUND

Under the Clean Water Act, the Oil Pollution Prevention regulation or 40 CFR 112, requires facilities that have an aboveground oil storage capacity of greater than 1,320 gallons and/or an underground storage capacity of greater than 42,000 gallons to prepare and implement a Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasure (SPCC) Plan. The regulation applies to UCSB due to the existence of oil containing aboveground storage tanks (ASTs) on the installation with a capacity, individually or in the aggregate, of more than 1,320 gallons and the legally expanded definitions that have evolved for the terms “navigable waters” and “discharge of oil in such quantities as may be harmful. Paragraph 40 CFR 112.7 requires that a written SPCC Plan, in accordance with good engineering practice, be prepared that has the full approval of management at the level of authority to commit the necessary resources to fully implement it. In addition, the SPCC Plan must include a complete discussion regarding conformance with EPA guidelines such as:

Control of drainage from diked and undiked storage areas.

Integrity of bulk storage tanks and associated secondary containment to include failsafe engineering and periodic integrity testing.

Periodic examination by operating personnel of piping integrity to include flange joints, expansion joints, pipeline supports, and metal surfaces.

Compliance of tank truck loading procedures with applicable Department of Transportation (DOT) regulations.

Written inspection procedures and records of inspection, which must be maintained for three years.

Security of storage tanks and associated master flow and drain valves.

Training of personnel in spill prevention procedures.

Oil Spill Contingency Plan

As detailed by 40 CFR 112.7(a)(5)(b), a supplemental oil spill contingency plan and a written commitment of manpower, equipment, and materials to remove spilled oil are required if a facility demonstrates that containment and/or diversionary structures or equipment as listed above are not practicable. The University of California, Santa Barbara is not required to prepare such a supplemental oil spill contingency plan because secondary containment is provided for those containers that by virtue of their size and/or location otherwise pose a risk of a harmful release of oil into the navigable waters of the United States. Policies and procedures relating to spill prevention and response are contained in the UCSB Emergency Response Plan, which is incorporated into this SPCC Plan by reference. Facility Response Plan

The requirement for a Facility Response Plan (FRP) per the Oil Pollution Act of 1990 and 40 CFR 112.20 does not apply at UCSB. The FRP is required for facilities that (1) transfer oil over water to or from vessels and that have a total oil storage capacity greater than or equal to 42,000 gallons or (2) that have a total oil capacity greater than or equal to one million gallons. The University does not transfer oil over water and the total oil storage capacity on campus does not exceed one million gallons. California Aboveground Petroleum Storage Act

In California, the Aboveground Petroleum Storage Act (APSA), which was adopted in 1989, regulates facilities with aboveground storage of crude oil and its fractions and requires the reporting of certain releases of oil into the environment. Specifically, this APSA requires owners/operators of aboveground petroleum storage facilities to (1) file a storage statement; (2) remit a fee every year to the Santa Barbara County Certified Unified Program Agency (CUPA); and (3) prepare and implement an SPCC Plan in accordance with 40 CFR 112.

3.0 UCSB OVERVIEW

3.1 SETTING

Campus Description

The Santa Barbara campus is one of ten UC campuses governed by the Regents of the University of California and is an internationally recognized public teaching and research institution. Approximately 20,000 students attend the University and the faculty consists of 1,054 members, with support from 3,631 staff members. The campus facilities include, but are not limited to, housing, food services, lecture halls/classrooms, science and research laboratories, aquarium/marine science laboratories, athletic fields, aquatics/swimming pool, grounds maintenance facility, and parking facilities. The 1,055-acre (approximately 1.6-square-mile) University is located on the South Coast of Santa Barbara County, California, as shown in Appendix A Maps, Figure A-1 and Figure A-2. Property included within the boundaries of UC Santa Barbara is divided into four principal campuses, as shown in Appendix A Maps, Figure A-3: 1. Main Campus (422 acres), comprising the academic, administrative, service departments, dormitories,

and natural areas such as the Campus Lagoon;

2. Storke Campus (184 acres), which includes additional athletic and service facilities, student housing, a construction area which will yield San Clemente housing (scheduled for completion in 2008, with a possible addition before 2025 [UC Santa Barbara 2008]), and natural areas such as Storke Campus Wetlands;

3. West Campus (273 acres), which includes faculty housing, the Child Care Center, West Campus Stables, Santa Catalina dormitories, and natural areas such as Devereux Slough (part of Coal Oil Point Natural Reserve, an ecological reserve that is one of 32 such sites located throughout California and included within the University of California Natural Reserve System); and

4. North Campus (174 acres), which is a mostly open space and surrounds the Ocean Meadows Golf Course but will also include the proposed Sierra Madre Housing and Faculty Housing. A joint proposal for a comprehensive planning approach to resolve land use and environmental conflicts in the North Campus Ellwood-Devereux Coast is currently being reviewed. This Joint Proposal would provide for the protection of sensitive environmental resources while allowing reasonable development. This proposal is a collaborative effort by the City of Goleta, UC Santa Barbara, and County of Santa Barbara.

The owner of record is the University of California Regents, 300 Lakeside Drive, Oakland, CA 94612-3550. The operator of record is UCSB Facilities Management, Santa Barbara, CA 93106. As indicated by the campus map at Appendix A Maps, Figure A-4, most of the campus is heavily developed, and the topography tends to generally slope towards the Pacific Ocean and the UCSB Lagoon. Storm water runoff is managed on the UCSB campus by a municipally separate storm sewer system (MS4) that discharges into local waterways. The preparation of a comprehensive map of the UCSB storm water conveyance system has been identified as a best management practice (BMP) in the University’s Storm Water Management Plan.

Topography

The Santa Ynez Mountains are oriented in an east/west direction north of the university, which lies on a coastal mesa and adjacent lowlands that form the Goleta Valley. Numerous drainages extend from the mountains to the Pacific Ocean, south of the University. The topography slopes in a southern direction towards bluffs above the Pacific Ocean. Land Use

Past and planned land use for the 2006/2007 school year and the 2025/2026 school year are listed in Table 3-1, Summaries of UCSB Land Use. In addition, Figure 3-1, Land Use on UCSB Campus in 2007, illustrates the land uses as of 2007 on the UC Santa Barbara Campus.

12

UC Santa Barbara is situated on a promontory, Goleta Point, which is bordered by four surface water bodies: Devereux Slough, Goleta Slough, Campus Lagoon, the Pacific Ocean, and the Storke Wetlands. In considering whether a facility may affect navigable waters of the United States or the adjoining shoreline, the EPA only considers location and geography. The EPA does not consider man-made features such as dikes, equipment or other structures intended to contain or divert a spill from reaching navigable waters or the shoreline. In addition, applicable EPA determinations and court rulings have broadly interpreted the definition of navigable waters to include most natural surface waters in or bounding the United States. Consistent with applicable regulatory definitions and associated court rulings, navigable waters that could be impacted by an oil spill on the UCSB campus include, but are not limited to, the following:

Devereux Slough

The Devereux Slough is located on the West Campus and is managed by the University of California’s Coal Oil Point Reserve. The 45-acre slough receives discharges primarily from Devereux Creek and its tributaries which encompass a 2,240-acre watershed. Land uses in the watershed include agriculture/open space in the upper reaches and residential/commercial in the lower areas. The Slough discharges to the Pacific Ocean via a tidal channel breach (a sand bar temporarily disconnects the slough and the ocean) (UC Santa Barbara 2008).

Storke Wetlands

The Storke Wetlands comprise approximately 20 acres along the northern perimeter of the Storke Campus. The Storke Wetlands watershed covers 347 acres and includes the northern portion of Isla Vista, the Storke Campus, and a narrow portion of the City of Goleta adjacent to Tecolotito Creek. The wetlands discharge to Goleta Slough (UC Santa Barbara 2008).

Goleta Slough

The 430-acre Goleta Slough comprises freshwater wetlands and tidal marsh. It is located north of and adjacent to the Main Campus. The slough receives discharges from UC Santa Barbara’s Storke Campus, north-facing bluffs, and More Mesa, as well as from seven creeks within the 45 square mile watershed: Atascadero, Las Vegas, Los Carneros, Maria Ygnacio, San Jose, San Pedro, and Tecolotito. Land use in the watershed is primarily open space, but the portions nearest the slough are developed and a large portion of the slough itself has been filled and subsequently developed. The slough generally discharges to the Pacific Ocean; however, sedimentation from upland sources and littoral drift frequently prohibits discharges, which limits tidal flushing and lowers oxygen levels in the slough waters (UC Santa Barbara 2008).

Campus Lagoon

The Campus Lagoon is a manmade 31-acre brackish pond located in the southern portion of the Main Campus adjacent to the Pacific Ocean. The water level in the lagoon is maintained between 4 and 7 feet above sea level by an overflow weir at the western end, outfall at the eastern end, and series of berms. However, the lagoon is potentially subject to tidal and wave action which could result in unexpected draining. The lagoon’s watershed comprises approximately half of UC Santa Barbara’s Main Campus, which includes open space and bluffs at the lagoon perimeter. The primary source of water supporting the lagoon is the seawater discharged from the UC Santa Barbara Marine Science Laboratories. The lagoon also receives stormwater runoff from the University, which contributes substantial amounts of water to the system during rain events (UC Santa Barbara 2008).

3.2 UNIVERSITY DEPARTMENTS AND COORDINATION

Implementation of this SPCC must be coordinated among several University departments. Dedicated efforts stem from the Director of the Office of Environmental Health and Safety (EH&S) and EH&S staff, Facilities Management (FM), Transportation and Parking Services (TPS), the Director and staff of the Housing and Residential Services Department (HRS), and the Budget and Planning Department (B&P). The Program will be managed by EH&S with support from the FM, HRS, and TPS. Contact information for those directly involved in the implementation and planning is provided in Table 3-2, UCSB Staff Contacts (Area Code 805). The main contact is Stacey Callaway, Environmental Compliance Specialist in EH&S and her phone number is (805) 893-7014. 3.3 LEGAL AUTHORITY AND ENFORCEMENT

In order to carry on its work of teaching, research, and public service, the University has an obligation to maintain conditions under which the work of the University can go forward freely, in accordance with the highest standards of quality, institutional integrity, and freedom of expression, with full recognition by the University community. UC Santa Barbara campus regulations address the rights and responsibilities of members of the University community and provide campus-wide standards for implementing regulations as a means of sustaining this community. UC Santa Barbara is committed to enforcing the SPCC, campus regulations, and policies. The University of California system is governed by a 26-member board known as “The Regents,” as established under Article IX, Section 9 of the California Constitution. The UC Santa Barbara Chancellor is appointed by the Board of Regents. The Chancellor is “responsible for the organization and operation of the campus [and] its internal administration” and has the ability to delegate authority to various university departments (University of California 1969). Various departments at UC Santa Barbara have been organized to effectively implement and oversee implementation of the University’s educational and business related objectives. To adequately protect natural resources throughout the campus, various departments have established policies for its protection and are ultimately responsible for assuring adherence to those policies. The UC Santa Barbara Design and Construction Services (D&CS) Department is responsible for inspecting all construction sites and facilitating any enforcement actions that may result. Physical Facilities (PF) is responsible for inspecting UC Santa Barbara educational and industrial facilities, both on and off campus. Housing and Residential Services (HRS) is responsible for inspecting existing UC Santa Barbara residential facilities, both on and off campus. Whenever suspect activity has been reported in residential areas of campus, the reports are investigated within 24 hours. The Office of Campus Planning and Design is responsible for physical planning, environmental assessment, regulatory approvals, community planning, and long range development planning. The Long Range Development Plan, which defines a number of policies for new development and redevelopment projects, is prepared by this office. In addition, they are responsible for assuring adherence to such policies. The UC Santa Barbara Campus Police Department has statewide jurisdiction under Section 830.2 of the California Penal Code. Campus Police operates 24-hours a day throughout the year. Coordination will occur between UC Santa Barbara departments and Campus Police to enforce existing and future water protection policies.

4.0 OIL STORAGE FACILITIES Oil, which is defined in federal and California regulations to include oil of any kind or in any form, is stored at a number of locations on the UCSB campus in containers having a capacity that exceeds 55 gallons. For convenience of reference, oil storage on the campus has been divided into three categories in this SPCC Plan:

1. Aboveground fuel oil storage tanks, to include the storage of waste oil for recycling.

2. Oil containing equipment, to include transformers and hydraulic systems.

3. Waste cooking oils derived from animal, vegetable, and seed sources.

Underground oil storage tanks, which are not subject to the provisions of 40 CFR 112 because they are subject to 40 CFR 180, are noted for completeness. As of the date of this plan, there have been no reportable spills per the criteria defined in 40 CFR 110.3 and 112.1(b).

4.1 ABOVEGROUND FUEL OIL STORAGE

Motor vehicle and generator fuels on the UCSB campus are typically stored in aboveground, double-walled, shop-constructed tanks or, in the case for generators, in associated belly tanks. The household hazardous waste collection program operated by UCSB utilizes a 500 gallon storage tank to accumulate waste oils, while vehicle maintenance and marine service facilities use 55 gallon drums to store used oil while awaiting pick-up by a recycling firm. There are no field-constructed tanks on the UCSB campus. The inventory of aboveground storage tanks on the UCSB campus is provided in Table 4-2, Inventory of Aboveground Oil Storage Tanks. A more detailed description of the larger storage tanks, which–albeit remote–pose the highest potential for a release of oil in quantities that could be harmful to the navigable waters of the United States, is provided in the following paragraphs. Engineering II Diesel Storage Tank (Building 503)

A single-walled, fiberglass 550 gallon diesel storage tank, which supplies an adjacent generator, is located in the Engineering II compound near Building 503. Appendix B, Bulk Oil Storage Tank Diagrams and Photographs includes a diagram of this tank at Figure B-1 and associated photographs are at Figure B-2. The tank is strapped to 18 inch concrete footings and an 18 inch high wall that surrounds the tank

A security fence surrounds the compound in which the tank is situated, and the vicinity of the tank is illuminated by means of a spotlight; the tank fill access is locked. 4.2 OIL-CONTAINING EQUIPMENT

Oil-filled equipment on the UCSB Campus that is subject to the provisions of 40 CFR 112 typically comprises hydraulic elevator systems; an inventory of these systems is included in Table 4-2, Inventory of Hydraulic Elevators. All of the elevators are configured with concrete pits and blind sumps; consequently, the potential for a release of oil in harmful quantities into the navigable waters of the United States as defined by 40 CFR 110.3 and 40 CFR 112.1(b) is considered extremely unlikely. 4.3 WASTE COOKING OIL STORAGE

Waste cooking oils generated by UCen Dining Services and by the large dormitory dining facilities are stored in 55 gallon drums prior to pick up by a recycling contractor. Specifically, waste cooking oil is accumulated in two 55 gallon drums at each of the four dining commons: Carrillo Dining Commons, De La Guerra, Ortega Dining Commons, and Portola Dining Commons. Given the limited storage of this type of cooking oil at scattered locations around the UCSB campus, the potential for a release of such oil in harmful quantities into the navigable waters of the United States as defined by 40 CFR 110.3 and 40 CFR 112.1(b) is considered extremely unlikely. Currently, there are no provisions in place for providing secondary containment of the drums used to store such cooking oils. However, this plan does include a recommendation to provide secondary containment for the storage of waste cooking oils. 4.4 UNDERGROUND FUEL OIL STORAGE

The two remaining underground storage tanks on the UCSB campus have been removed. At one time they were used to store diesel fuel and were located in the EH&S compound and the Physical Sciences Building North.

5.0 COMPLIANCE APPROACH

5.1 APPLICABILITY

This SPCC Plan is effective upon approval of the director of the Environmental Health and Safety department at University of California, Santa Barbara. This SPCC Plan applies to the management of all oil-containing aboveground storage tanks, drums, equipment, and other containers owned or leased by UCSB that have a capacity of 55 gallons or more. The department director responsible for the operation and maintenance of an oil storage vessel is the person accountable for spill prevention for that facility per 40 CFR 112.7(f)(2). The director of EH&S is the designated individual responsible for the general management of the oil spill prevention program on the UCSB campus. 5.2 GENERAL MANAGEMENT GUIDELINES

The management of bulk oil storage tanks, oil-containing equipment, and waste cooking oils on the UCSB campus must ensure compliance with federal and California regulatory requirements as summarized in Section 2.3 of this SPCC Plan. The office responsible for ensuring that an oil storage tank subject to the provisions of 40 CFR 112, Oil Pollution Prevention, is managed, configured, and equipped in accordance with this SPCC Plan will be that office so designated in Table 4-1, Inventory of Aboveground Oil Storage Tanks. Each oil storage tank on the UCSB campus must be specifically assigned to a UCSB office that will be responsible for ensuring the tank complies with applicable requirements of 40 CFR 112 and this SPCC Plan. Normally, the responsible office will be that office that maintains, replenishes, and operates the storage tank. If tank compliance with this SPCC Plan is effected through a contractor, the office that awarded the contract must ensure that contractual mechanisms are in place so that compliance status can be routinely and regularly verified. It is important to remember that responsibilities required by law or regulation cannot be changed by contract and that UCSB may be liable for an operator’s or contractor’s failure to comply with applicable laws and regulations. If a responsible office cannot be determined for a particular oil storage tank then EH&S will assume responsibility for the tank and will initiate closure actions in accordance with applicable federal and California regulations if necessary. Any oil storage tank or item of oil-containing equipment that is found to be leaking will be immediately removed from service pending repair or replacement by the responsible office. Any tank subject to this SPCC Plan that is found to be leaking will be immediately reported to EH&S, which will in turn notify regulatory agencies as required per applicable federal and California regulations. Offices responsible for storage tanks subject to this SPCC Plan will ensure that a review of the compliance status of each such tank is accomplished annually using the applicable portions of the self-inspection checklists included in Appendix C, UCSB SPCC Inspection Checklist of this Plan.


25

5.3 DISCHARGE PREVENTION MEASURES

The following spill prevention measures will be implemented for oil storage tanks subject to this SPCC Plan by the responsible offices:

Oil storage tanks and associated piping will be constructed of materials that are compatible with the commodity being stored.

Oil storage tanks are to be equipped with high-level alarms and/or automatic high-level shut-off valves.

A safe fill level will be established for oil storage tanks in coordination with EH&S.

Liquid level sensing devices will be tested regularly to ensure proper operation.

Adequate spill prevention and cleanup materials are to be readily available.

Offices responsible for storage tanks subject to the provisions of 40 CFR 112 will notify EH&S of any changes in oil storage facilities, storage tank inventory, and fueling operations and procedures that may require an amendment to the UCSB Emergency Response Plan and/or to this SPCC Plan.

5.4 SECONDARY CONTAINMENT

Only double-walled, secondary containment ASTs will be used for the bulk storage of oil on UCSB. Existing single-walled oil storage tanks will be programmed for replacement as soon as practical. The EPA memorandum entitled “Use of Alternative Secondary Containment Measures at Facilities Regulated under the Oil Pollution Prevention Regulation (40 CFR 112)” stipulates certain requirements if double-walled ASTs are used to satisfy the requirement for secondary containment. Accordingly, double-walled tanks on the UCSB campus will comply with the following:

The inner tank must be an Underwriters’ Laboratory (UL)-listed steel tank;

The outer wall must be constructed in accordance with nationally accepted industry standards;

The tank must have overfill prevention measures that include an overfill alarm and an automatic flow restrictor or flow shut-off; and

Constant monitoring of all product transfers must be provided.

Sorbent materials will be stocked and kept readily available to contain spillage from oil-containing equipment that is not otherwise configured with secondary containment. Sorbent materials will also be stocked and kept readily available at locations where waste cooking oils and associated grease are accumulated prior to pickup for recycling or reuse. 5.5 CONTINGENCY PLANNING

Policies and procedures relating to oil spill prevention and response are outlined in the UCSB Emergency Response Plan, which is incorporated into this SPCC Plan by reference. See Section 6 Emergency Response for emergency response policies and procedures.


26

5.6 INSPECTION REQUIREMENTS

Offices responsible for oil-containing ASTs will perform a monthly inspection of the tanks to include the following items:

Signs of leakage from tank and associated piping;

Evidence of tank corrosion;

Signs of deterioration in foundations and/or structural supports;

Signs of deterioration of secondary containment;

Confirmation of closure of containment drain valves;

Assessment of the general condition of seams, rivets, nozzle connections, valves, and pipelines directly connected to, or associated with, the tank; and

Good housekeeping. For double-walled tanks that are not equipped with functional interstitial sensors that provide an alarm/indication when commodity enters the annular space, the responsible owner/operator will verify monthly that there has been no release from the primary tank into the annular space. Responsible offices will maintain a suitable log of AST inspections and ensure it is available for review by federal and California regulators. Inspection records will be maintained for three years. Offices responsible for oil-containing equipment will perform a monthly inspection of the equipment to include the following:

Signs of oil seepage;

Evidence of corrosion or deterioration that my increase the risk of an accidental release of oil;

Evidence of oil accumulations in associated sumps; and

Integrity of connecting lines.

Offices responsible for accumulating cooking oils and greases for disposal will inspect associated containers each operating day to ensure that they are not leaking and that adequate containment is being provided. 5.7 PERSONNEL TRAINING

Offices responsible for oil storage tanks subject to this SPCC Plan will provide training to personnel who are responsible for the management of oil in accordance with 40 CFR 112.7(f). In particular, the responsible office will ensure that incoming personnel are trained to adequately address oil spill prevention and emergency response. Accordingly, training records will be maintained to include the following:

Job title and description;

Individual name;

Training required (introductory or continuing); and

Training records (documentation demonstrating completion).


27

Reviews of existing oil spill prevention, control, and countermeasure requirements will be briefed at a frequency sufficient to ensure that oil-handling personnel have an adequate understanding of applicable regulatory requirements and the content of this SPCC Plan. EH&S will provide training regarding the substantive elements of this SPCC Plan at least annually to personnel who maintain, operate, replenish, and/or inspect the storage tanks subject to the provisions of 40 CFR 112 and this SPCC Plan. At a minimum, the training will cover the following:

Proper operation and maintenance of equipment to prevent the discharge of oil;

Applicable federal, California, and local pollution control laws and spill prevention and notification requirements;

Site-specific SPCC Plan requirements; and

Known spill events or failures, malfunctioning components, and any recently developed precautionary measures.

5.8 SECURITY

Appropriate security measures will be coordinated and implemented by responsible offices to preclude or deter unauthorized, unknowing, or accidental entry of personnel, animals, or vehicles into oil storage sites subject to this SPCC Plan. Lighting must be commensurate with the need to detect a discharge during the hours of darkness and to deter vandalism. Appropriate security measures include:

Routine patrols of oil storage sites by campus security;

Fencing, perimeter lighting, and/or video monitoring;

Vehicle barriers to prevent accidental impacts to storage tanks;

Secured or locked entrances to sites;

Locked, or otherwise secured, drain valves and pumps for oil storage tanks;

Secured oil loading and unloading facilities; and

The use of warning signs to prevent unauthorized or unknowing entry.

All valves that could permit a release of oil must be locked when not in use. Similarly, starter controls on pumps must be locked in the “off” position when not in use or located in an area accessible only by authorized personnel. 5.9 REQUIREMENTS FOR TANK TRUCK LOADING/UNLOADING RACKS

Per 67 CFR 47110, the EPA has stated that it will continue to evaluate the issue of whether secondary containment capable of containing any single compartment of a tank truck used to refill a storage tank must be provided at each AST and litigation over this issue is pending at the time of preparation of this SPCC Plan. Given the number of storage tank locations on the UCSB campus that could be affected by this provision and the significant engineering and design effort that could be entailed, interim compliance will be affected by the following:

EH&S will ensure that the UCSB Emergency Response Plan is kept current.

Personnel who are trained to respond to an inadvertent release will be present at all tank refill operations.

Fuel trucks will be chocked during refill of oil storage tanks.


28

Prior to filling or departure, the fuel truck operators will closely inspect the lowermost drains and all outlets of the tank truck for any discharges and effect repairs, as necessary, to prevent liquid discharge while in transit.

Sorbent materials will be available during storage tank refilling operations to contain an accidental spillage of oil.

5.10 STORAGE FACILITY DRAINAGE

Responsible offices must ensure that adequate drainage systems are provided as required to prevent contaminated runoff from discharging into navigable waters. Any valves draining the containment area will be tightly controlled and will not be opened except under the supervision of a qualified person to preclude the release of any spilled material. These procedures will comply with the UCSB Stormwater Management Plan and the following provisions:

Preclude the discharge of drainage water from secondary/tertiary containment structures that contain residual petroleum products or hazardous chemicals that may be contained in petroleum products.

The drainage of accumulated rainwater from secondary/tertiary containment structures must be accomplished in strict conformance with 40 CFR 112.8(b) to preclude the discharge of water that contains residual petroleum products or associated hazardous chemicals. Specifically, the condition of rainwater retained in containment structures must be examined prior to release to grade or to a storm drain to ensure it does not comprise a harmful discharge as defined in 40 CFR 110.3. The responsible office must ensure that the retained water (1) is in compliance with applicable federal and California water quality standards, (2) will not produce a film or sheen or discoloration of surface waters, and (3) will not result in the deposition of any sludge or emulsion. Drainage water that is determined to contain petroleum products in harmful quantities must not be discharged to grade or to storm drains.

Drainage of liquid from diked areas must be controlled by a valve that is closed when not in active use. The valve must be resealed closed after drainage under responsible supervision.

An adequate record must be maintained of all drainage events in accordance with the UCSB Storm Water Management Plan.

If drainage water is oil-contaminated, it will be collected by vacuum truck or pump and disposed of in accordance with applicable hazardous waste regulations. 5.11 BULK STORAGE TANKS

The following spill prevention measures will be implemented for oil storage tanks subject to this SPCC Plan by the responsible offices:

Oil storage tanks and associated piping will be constructed of materials that are compatible with the commodity being stored.

All future bulk storage tank installations will be constructed so that a secondary means of containment for the entire capacity of the largest single container will be provided.

Drainage of uncontaminated rainwater from a diked area near a storage tank is not permitted to be discharged to a stormdrain, an open watercourse, lake, or pond.

Qualified personnel will test or inspect each aboveground container for integrity on a regular schedule and whenever material repairs are made.


29

Oil storage tanks are to be equipped with high-level alarms and/or automatic high-level shut-off valves.

A safe fill level will be established for oil storage tanks in coordination with EH&S.

Liquid level sensing devices will be tested regularly to ensure proper operation.

Visible discharges which might result on a loss of oil from the container; including but not limited to seams, gaskets, piping, pumps, valves, rivets, and bolts; will be promptly corrected.

Portable storage containers will be positioned to prevent a discharge as described in 40 CFR 112.1(b).

Adequate spill prevention and cleanup materials are to be readily available.

Offices responsible for storage tanks subject to the provisions of 40 CFR 112 will notify EH&S of any changes in oil storage facilities, storage tank inventory, and fueling operations and procedures that may require an amendment to the UCSB Emergency Response Plan and/or to this SPCC Plan.

5.12 MANAGEMENT OF FACILITY TRANSFER OPERATIONS AND EQUIPMENT

The responsibility of those offices that operate oil-containing storage tanks subject to this SPCC Plan extends to the upkeep, inspection, and testing of associated piping, valves, and other appurtenances as follows:

Ensure that associated buried piping is protected from corrosion with suitable wrapping or coating or by cathodic protection.

If a section of buried piping is exposed for any reason it will be inspected for corrosion and, if warranted, be repaired or replaced.

When piping is taken out of service or placed in standby status piping will be capped or blank-flanged at the terminal connection or transfer point and marked accordingly.

Ensure that aboveground valves, piping, and appurtenances are visually inspected for deterioration or leakage whenever the associated oil storage tank is filled, but not to exceed once every month.

Ensure that buried piping is tested for integrity and tightness upon installation, modification, construction, relocation, or replacement.

Warning signs and/or physical barriers will be installed as required to protect aboveground piping from vehicular traffic.

A pipeline maintenance program to include periodic examination of piping and hosing, corrosion protection, and flow line replacement as required will be incorporated into the UCSB preventive maintenance program. 5.13 INTEGRITY AND TIGHTNESS TESTING

Offices responsible for oil-containing aboveground storage tanks will test the tanks and associated connections for integrity and tightness before being placed in service and no less frequently than every five years thereafter. Tanks must be tested and certified by California licensed technicians, and appropriate documentation must be maintained for the last two successive tests. Tanks that have been relocated, structurally damaged, repaired, or that are suspected of leaking must be tightness tested at operating pressure with air, inert gas or water, as appropriate, prior to being placed/continued in service. Air pressure is not to be used to test ASTs that contain flammable or combustible liquids or vapors.


30

5.14 MAINTENANCE

Responsible offices will maintain ASTs in accordance with 29 CFR 1910.106, Flammable and Combustible Liquids; associated American Petroleum Institute (API) Standards; and this SPCC Plan. Responsible owners/operators will implement a preventive maintenance program consistent with the requirements of this Plan. Specifically, the preventive maintenance program will encompass the following:

The periodic lubrication, adjustment, and replacement of moving parts in all equipment where equipment failure could result in an unplanned release of oil or impede response efforts.

Priority maintenance of those components of an AST system that pose the greatest likelihood of causing a spill such as tanks, piping, pumps, valves, gauges, metering equipment, and spill response equipment.

Implementation of all recurring maintenance as required by manufacturer’s specifications.

5.15 OVERFILL PROTECTION

Responsible offices must ensure that overfill protection is in place for double-walled tanks with no diking or remote impoundment. Overfilling may be prevented by an alarm sounding when the liquid level in the tank reaches 90 percent capacity and by automatically stopping delivery of the liquid to the tank when the liquid level reaches 95percent capacity. In accordance with 40 CFR 112.8(c)(8)(iii), overfill protection may be provided by direct audible or code signal communication between the tank gauger and the pumping station. As required, small sumps (3 to 4 gallons) or drip pans will be placed around a fill port to collect spills from disconnected transfer lines. 5.16 SPCC PLAN REVIEW AND AMENDMENT

EH&S will conduct a review and evaluation of this SPCC Plan to verify its accuracy and currency every five years according to 40 CFR 112.5(b). This review will be logged on page 5 of this SPCC Plan. If, as a result of this review, more effective prevention and control technology and/or procedures are identified EH&S will amend the Plan. In particular, the SPCC Plan will be amended if (1) such technology and/or procedures will significantly reduce the likelihood of a spill event on the campus and (2) associated technology has been field-proven at the time of review. EH&S will also amend this SPCC Plan for the following reasons:

When required by the EPA or Regional Administrator as stated in 40 CFR 112.4 because of a spill; or

Whenever there is a change in facility design, construction, operation, or maintenance that materially affects the potential for an oil spill. In particular, this SPCC Plan will be updated in conjunction with any addition to the list of tanks in Table 4-1, Inventory of Aboveground Oil Storage Tanks or upon any removal, deactivation, relocation, or significant modification of any storage tank subject to this SPCC Plan.

Any amendment will be fully implemented no later than 6 months after the SPCC Plan is amended. No technical amendment to this SPCC Plan will become effective until certified by a Licensed Professional Engineer in accordance with 40 CFR 112.3(d).


31

It is incumbent on those offices responsible for operating and maintaining oil storage tanks, oil-containing equipment, and waste cooking oil accumulation facilities subject to this plan to promptly notify EH&S of any significant change in status that may require revision or update of this SPCC Plan. Errors or recommendations for improvements of this SPCC Plan should be brought to the attention of EH&S.

6.0 EMERGENCY RESPONSE

6.1 OBJECTIVES

The overriding objective in the event of a release of oil or hazardous material from containment structures is the protection of affected personnel. In the event of an unauthorized release of oil, every reasonable effort will be made to prevent it from reaching the navigable waters of the United States. This response criterion will be extended to watercourses and dry streambeds whether or not they are considered to be “Waters of the United States.” 6.2 EMERGENCY NOTIFICATION

In the event of a reportable spill or fire, refer to Table 6.1, Emergency Contact List for a listing of key offices or agencies that may be contacted for assistance. 6.3 CONTAINMENT AND CLEANUP

Policies and procedures relating to oil spill prevention and response are outlined in the UCSB Emergency Response Plan, which is incorporated into this SPCC Plan by reference. In the event that a spill escapes on site containment, the following procedures will be instituted:

Additional containment basins, dikes, or diversionary structures will be constructed, if feasible. The extent of any environmental damage caused by the construction of such containment options will be taken into consideration.

If insufficient equipment and/or personnel are available from on campus resources assistance will be procured from qualified contractors.

Where appropriate, spill control will be affected by the expeditious use of vacuum trucks and other removal methods.

If oil is discharged into navigable waters of the United States, oil booms, sorbents, and other devices will be used as appropriate to control the spread of oil.

Other cleanup techniques will be used consistent with the requirements of federal and California regulatory agencies.

Cleanup of spilled materials will comply with the following criteria:

Comply with all federal and California safety and health regulations applicable to the cleanup of spilled oil and associated hazardous materials.

Remove spilled oil as expeditiously as possible. Include the use of vacuum trucks if necessary. Contaminated soil will be cleaned to the extent possible by mechanical means to recover as much oil as possible.

EH&S will determine the extent to which cleanup and disposition of oil and oil-contaminated materials must be effected in accordance with applicable regulations and through consultation with regulatory agencies.

7.0 PROPOSED CORRECTIVE MEASURES The following corrective measures have been deemed necessary and will be implemented as soon as possible:

1. Evaluate need for secondary containment of connecting piping at bulk oil storage locations, especially at Building 585 where flowing water can be heard in nearby drain. Other facilities with bulk oil storage tanks where piping extended beyond secondary containment included Buildings 503 and the diesel tank at Building 555.

2. Equip all double-walled, bulk oil storage tanks on the UCSB campus with interstitial sensors that provide an audible and/or visual indication when commodity enters the annular space.

3. Enclose all bulk oil storage tanks subject to this SPCC Plan within secure fences or walls to preclude or deter unauthorized, unknowing, or accidental entry of personnel, animals, or vehicles. This recommendation especially applies to the bulk storage tanks at Buildings 503 and 585.

4. Provide adequate lighting for all bulk oil storage tanks on the UCSB campus to facilitate the discovery of discharges during the hours of darkness and to deter vandalism. This recommendation applies especially to the bulk oil storage tank at Buildings 503, 571, and 585.

5. Provide spill kits and absorbent materials to control and contain releases of oil from hydraulic systems that are not otherwise equipped with secondary containment.

6. Provide spill kits and absorbent materials to control and contain releases of waste cooking oils and greases at the various dining facilities on the UCSB campus.

7. Provide spill pallets for drummed waste oil at the vehicle maintenance facility at Building 595 and marina maintenance facility at Building 555.

8. Install an appropriate gate valve and locking device on the tertiary containment in which the 500 gallon gasoline tank at Marine Biotech Laboratory Building 555 is located. In addition, assess the adequacy of the drainage valve for the secondary containment at Building 571 bulk oil storage tank.
