214 Tampa Bay Area Contingency Plan – 2012 ______

9130 Response Strategies

The purpose of this appendix is to outline strategies for responding to all spills within the Sector St. Petersburg AOR. The area includes thirteen counties along the West Coast of Florida. These coastal areas contain many different economic and ecological areas, archeological sites and numerous aquatic/animal/bird habitats and sanctuaries. "Sensitive areas" (including mangroves, beaches, etc.) make the AOR one of the more difficult to clean in the event of a catastrophe and one of the more challenging when planning for prevention and spill response. The first step in any spill incident is to assess the situation and determine a set of priorities. The mitigation and overall response to a spill should then be carried out to address these priorities. At a minimum, the following must be addressed:

1. Response Priorities a. Protect human life and health b. Minimize ecological impacts c. Minimize economic and public impacts 2. Determination of protection priorities 3. Determination of appropriate countermeasures 4. Determination of natural collection areas and boom sites throughout the area 5. Determination of containment techniques 6. Determination of removal techniques 7. Determination of shoreline cleanup techniques/strategies

The second action to effectively minimize economic and ecological impacts is the necessity to control the spill source. Minimizing the amount of product released will aid in protecting human life, wildlife and environmental and human habitation areas.

In determining the priorities and actions in response efforts the Tampa Bay Physical Oceanographic Real-Time System (PORTS) may be utilized to provide critical data to aid in the calculation of spill trajectories. In the event of a hazardous spill, or any type of preparedness Drill, information from P.O.R.T.S. maybe obtained by contacting P.O.R.T.S. directly at (727) 893-9137, fax (727)825-0323, or visiting their website at http://ompl.marine.usf.edu/PORTS/ports.html

215 Tampa Bay Area Contingency Plan – 2012 ______The determination for "How Clean is Clean" will be made on a case by case basis by the FOSC in conjunction with the appropriate SOSC and/or Responsible Party. Although the final decision rests with the FOSC, the FOSC will review the recommendations made by the SOSC, Responsible Party, Natural Resource Damage Assessment Team, members of the Area Committee, and others involved in the welfare of the environment, before making the final determination. Additional Resources for Determining "How Clean is Clean:. Additional information on determining "How Clean is Clean" can be obtained through the CG Gulf Strike Team (GST) and the Scientific Support Coordinator (SSC) through NOAA. The GST's Shoreline Cleanup and Assessment Team (SCAT) is available for assistance to the FOSC. This team has specialized trained personnel to determine whether further cleanup is necessary or if natural cleansing would be more viable. NOAA's Hazardous Materials Response and Awareness Division has developed a "Shoreline Countermeasure Manual" which has proven itself to be highly effective in determining the damage state to a shoreline after a spill has occurred. This manual is a tool for shoreline countermeasure planning and response written to assist Regional Response Teams, Area Planning Committees, and State response agencies. The manual is presented as a template that can be tailored for each region. To obtain a copy of the manual, contact NOAA Scientific Support Coordinator at (305) 530-7931. Email addresses to NOAA members can be obtained on their website at http://www.noaa.gov.

9210.13 USCG National Strike Force

The National Strike Force (NSF) was created in 1973 as a Coast Guard “Special Team” under the National Oil and Hazardous Substances Pollution Control Plan (National Contingency Plan), designed to support the Coast Guard, Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), and Department of Defense (DoD) pre-designated Federal On-Scene Coordinators (FOSCs) in their preparedness and response duties including responding to potential and actual oil and hazardous material spills and weapons of mass destruction incidents as directed by the National Contingency Plan (NCP). The NSF is composed of four units: the National Strike 221 Tampa Bay Area Contingency Plan – 2012 ______Force Coordination Center (Elizabeth City, NC), the Atlantic Strike Team (Fort Dix, NJ), the Gulf Strike Team (Mobile, AL), and the Pacific Strike Team (Novato, CA). The USCG National Strike Force Coordination Center (NSFCC) coordinates the three Coast Guard Strike Teams and the Public Information Assist Team (PIAT). The NSFCC also carries out several national preparedness missions directly supporting FOSCs. Each FOSC has a specific Strike Team designated for initial contact and may contact that team directly for any assistance. A FOSC may directly request PIAT assistance by contacting the NSFCC or any Strike Team.

The National Strike Force is one of the deployable specialized forces (DSF) managed by the Deployable Operations Group (DOG). However, unlike the other DSFs requiring a request for forces, a Federal On-Scene Coordinators can request NSF assistance directly by contacting their servicing Strike Team or contacting the NSFCC.

Strike Team Areas of Responsibility

9210.14 National Strike Force Capabilities • Respond with trained personnel and specialized equipment to prevent, contain and/or remove spills of oil and releases of hazardous material;

• Provide spill management expertise;

• Provide guidance for preplanning and response to weapons of mass destruction incidents;

• Assist with response planning and consultation;

• Conduct operational training in oil and chemical spill response techniques and equipment usage;

• Participate with the response, coordination, control and evaluation of National Preparedness for Response Exercise Program (PREP) training and exercises;

• Technical assistance, equipment and personnel to augment the FOSC staff during incident response;

• Identify, locate, and assist in the transportation of specialized equipment needed for any type of response;

224 Tampa Bay Area Contingency Plan – 2012 ______• Provide support from the Public Information Assist Team (PIAT) to FOSCs during incident responses or exercise training;

• Assist in coordinating the use of private and public resources in support of the FOSC during a response to or a threat of a worst case incident;

• Review Area Contingency Plans (ACP), including evaluation of equipment readiness and coordination among responsible public agencies and private organizations;

• Assist in location of spill response resources for both response and planning, using the DOG NSFCC's national and international computerized inventory of spill response resources in the Response Resource Inventory (RRI) data base which includes the OSRO/PAV programs;

• Inspection of district pre-positioned pollution response equipment.

9210.15 Requesting Strike Team Assistance Requesting assistance from any one Strike Team, an FOSC immediately gains access to the entire NSF personnel roster and equipment inventory. FOSCs are encouraged to contact the NSF when: • Control of the discharge requires the special knowledge or special equipment of the NSF;

• Response will require in excess of two days to complete removal operations and augmentation by NSF personnel will release local forces to return to normal operations;

• Responsible Party (RP) has not or will not assume control immediately of the incident and the FOSC needs an immediate response to protect the environment and or the public;

• In the judgment of the FOSC, NSF capabilities are necessary;

• Technical assistance, equipment and other resources to augment the FOSC staff during incident response or exercise training;

• Deployment of the district prepositioned pollution equipment (VOSS) or USCG SORS equipped vessel response is needed.

9210.16 Strike Team Deployment

Upon receiving a request, personnel and equipment will be deployed to the scene in the most expeditious manner possible. Each team maintains a state of readiness which enables them to rapidly mobilize personnel and response equipment. Strike Team response equipment is palletized, loaded, and ready for immediate deployment by truck or aircraft. Each Strike Team is capable of dispatching responders by the fastest means possible adhering to the NSF’s minimum response time criteria as the circumstances of the incident dictate: Mobilizing four members within 2 hours of notification Mobilizing eight members within 6 hours of notification Mobilizing heavy equipment loads within 6 hours of notification Additional Strike Team personnel and equipment can be mobilized within 24 hours of notification 225 Tampa Bay Area Contingency Plan – 2012 ______

9210.17 Strike Team Funding For responses, Strike Team personnel require travel orders or travel accounting information prior to deployment. Funding typically comes from the pollution response fund (FPN, CPN, DPN). If no pollution response fund has been accessed, the requesting unit must provide funding.

Requests for training and exercise support that are associated with PREP are generally funded through the Deployable Operations Group (exercises included in the MTEP process); however, under some circumstances, the requesting unit may be required to provide funding.

Non-PREP training and exercise support requests originating from a Federal agency, including the Coast Guard, shall be funded by the requesting agency or unit. Under most circumstances, State, County, and Municipal level-agencies will not be expected to provide funding.

9210.18 Transportation Mobilization of Strike Team equipment may involve over-the-road transport: all three Strike Teams have tractor-trailer rigs that give them rapid deployment capabilities. Aviation support is often needed during an emergency response to rapidly transport Strike Team equipment and/or personnel to the incident. When a Strike Team is requested by a FOSC/Sector Commander for assistance, the need/requirements for aviation support should be discussed. Requests for aviation support are the responsibility of the FOSC/Sector Commander. If aviation support is needed for an emergency response, the Sector should request the appropriate aviation support to Area through the District. The Strike Team can engage directly with the applicable Sector/Air Station to coordinate the aviation support requirements while the request is being processed through the District and Area..

NOTE: Since response support is time critical, early notification of Strike Team assistance (or potential assistance) will allow the teams to begin logistics planning even before a formal request is made.

9210.19 Logistic Considerations Strike Teams make every effort to be logistically independent; however, assistance may be required from the FOSC in arranging the following support: • Heavy lifting equipment, such as cranes and forklifts capable of handling a 16,000 lb. containment barrier box; • Fork extensions for forklift; • Small boats, vessels of opportunity; • Tractor-Trailer rigs; • Electrical power, land lines for telephones and computers, • Local logistics @staging areas, docks, boat ramps, weather conditions, etc. • Potable water supply and fuel supply for command posts.

Specific logistic needs will be clarified during the initial request for assistance; these needs vary, dependent upon the incident and location. Strike Teams attempt to minimize the effort by the FOSC's staff required to arrange support. However, the local knowledge of the FOSC's staff may be relied upon by the Strike Teams to make reasonable decisions regarding logistics.

226 Tampa Bay Area Contingency Plan – 2012 ______

9210.20 Public Information Assist Team (PIAT)

The Public Information Assist Team (PIAT) is an element of the National Strike Force, co- located with the National Strike Force Coordination Center and is available to Federal On- Scene Coordinators. Four highly trained crisis communications professionals staff the team. The PIAT’s primary function is to provide the gamut of emergency public information services during oil spills and hazardous material releases – the team also provides these services for natural disasters, domestic terrorism events and weapons of mass destruction events. Team members routinely act as the Public Information Officer for Coast Guard and Environmental Protection Agency officials responsible for mitigating oil and hazardous material incidents.

Team personnel also teach risk communication and media relations techniques, as well as ICS-based Joint Information Center organization and Public Information Officer operations to response community personnel from the Coast Guard, other federal agencies, state and local agencies and industry. Additionally, the PIAT assists in the scenario development of Coast Guard pollution response exercises and participates as evaluators or controllers during federal- and industry-led exercises.

To request the Public Information Assist Team, contact the NSFCC at 252-331-6000, or after hours through the CDO at 252-267-3458, or the NRC at 800-424-8802.

PIAT website: http://www.uscg.mil/hq/nsfweb/piat/piatindex.html

9210.21 PIAT Deployment Upon receiving a request, PIAT’s goal is to deploy two (2) personnel and one (1) response kit within six hours of notification, and an additional two (2) personnel within 24 hours, if necessary. All NSF members, including PIAT, deploy for a maximum of 21 days at a time.

9210.22 PIAT Funding For responses, PIAT requires travel orders or travel accounting information prior to deployment. Funding typically comes from the pollution response fund. If no pollution response fund has been accessed, funding will come from the requesting unit.

Requests for training and exercise support that are associated with PREP are generally funded through the Deployable Operations Group; however, under some circumstances, the requesting unit may be required to provide funding.

9210.3 USCG District Response Group (DRG)

The District Response Group is a framework within each Coast Guard district to organize district resources and assets to support USCG FOSCs during response to a pollution incident. Coast Guard DRG assist the FOSC by providing technical assistance, personnel, and equipment, including the Coast Guard's pre-positioned equipment. Each DRG consists of all Coast Guard personnel and equipment, including firefighting equipment, in its district, additional pre- positioned equipment.

9210.4 U.S. NAVY Supervisor Salvage (SUPSALV) 227 Tampa Bay Area Contingency Plan – 2012 ______

The U.S. Navy (USN) is the Federal agency most knowledgeable and experienced in ship salvage, shipboard damage control, and diving. The USN has an extensive array of specialized equipment and personnel available for use in these areas as well as specialized containment, collection, and removal equipment specifically designed for salvage related and open sea pollution incidents. The Supervisor of Salvage (SUPSALV) can provide salvage expertise and maintains a warehouse on each coast stockpiled with salvage and response gear. The nearest SUPSALV location is in Norfolk, VA. For general guidelines to follow in responding to an incident that requires salvage operations refer to UN Navy Salvage Manual Volume 1 – 6 at the following web address: http://www.supsalv.org/00c2_publications.asp?destPage=00c2&pageld=2.6

9210.5 NOAA Scientific Support Coordinators (SSC)

NOAA Scientific Support Coordinators (SSCs) are the principal advisors to the USCG FOSC for scientific issues, communication with the scientific community, and coordination of requests for assistance from State and Federal agencies regarding scientific studies. The SSC leads a scientific team and strives for a consensus on scientific issues affecting the response but ensures that differing opinions within the community are communicated to the FOSC. The SSC can also assist the FOSC with information relating to spill movements and trajectories. The NOAA SSC serves as the FOSC's liaison between damage assessment data collection efforts and data collected in support of response operations. The SSC leads the synthesis and integration of environmental information required for spill response decisions in support of the FOSC, coordinating with State representatives, appropriate trustees and other knowledgeable local representatives.

9210.6 EPA Emergency Response Teams (ERT)

The EPA's Environmental Response Team (ERT) has expertise in treatment technology, biology, chemistry, hydrology, geology, and engineering. The ERT can provide the OSC access to special equipment to deal with chemical releases and can provide the OSC with advice concerning hazard evaluation, multimedia sampling and analysis, risk assessment, on- site safety, cleanup techniques, water supply decontamination and protection, use of dispersants, environmental assessment, degree of cleanup required, and the disposal of contaminated materials. The ERT also offers various training courses to prepare response personnel.

9210.7 Agency for Toxic Support and Disease (ATSDR)

The Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR) maintains appropriate disease/exposure registries, provides medical care and testing of individuals during public health emergencies. ATSDR also develops, maintains, and informs the public concerning the effects of toxic substances, maintains a list of restricted or closed areas due to contamination, conducts research examining the relationship between exposure and illness, and conducts health assessments at contaminated sites.

9310 Site Safety Plan

Coast Guard employees, other government employees, contract personnel involved in oil spill response activities, and wildlife rehabilitation workers must comply with all applicable worker health and safety laws and regulations. The primary federal regulations are the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) standards for hazardous waste operations and Emergency Response found in 29 CFR 1910.120. This rule regulates the safety and health of employees involved in cleanup operations at uncontrolled hazardous waste sites during cleaning operations and in certain hazardous waste treatment, storage, and disposal operations conducted under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act of 1976 (RCRA). The regulations also apply to both Emergency Response and post-emergency cleanup of hazardous substance spills. The definition of hazardous substance used in these regulations is much broader than CERCLA, encompassing all CERCLA hazardous substances, RCRA hazardous waste, and all DOT hazardous material listed in 49 CFR Part 172. Thus, most oils and oil spill responses are covered by these regulations. The rules cover employee protection during initial site characterization and analysis, monitoring activities, material handling activities, training, and Emergency Response.

1.0 Incident Background Old Port Tampa Spill Initial Ephemeral Sampling Plan DRILL

At 1800 hrs on November 5, 2014, the Crowley Barge PACIFIC RELIANCE / 650-1, began offloading product at the Motiva Tampa Terminal. The cargo included 127,000 bbls of Ultra Low Sulfur Diesel (ULSD) and 51,000 bbls of Gasoline. At 1900 hrs, the M/T POSEIDON was approaching the Chevron dock located adjacent to the Motiva Terminal when it lost steering and collided with the ATB PACIFIC RELIANCE / 650-1. The collision resulted in a breach of the port tanks containing ULSD on the PACIFIC RELIANCE and the release of approximately 8,000 bbls of ULSD into Old Port Tampa Bay. Updated estimates of the volume of oil released will be included in revisions to plans as needed.

This plan describes proposed sample collection in and around the incident, and consists of the following sampling activities: (1) source oil; (2) baseline water column sampling; and (3) post-impact sampling of surface oil (e.g., sheen or weathered oil) and water column.

2.0 Resources at Risk

Water depths in the collision area and shipping channel are approximately 42 feet, with shallower waters outside the shipping channel (approximately 12 feet).

Specific Resources at Risk in the area have been identified, including: seagrass/tidal flats, oyster beds, bird nesting areas, essential fish habitat, manatee protection areas, mangroves, and commercial water intakes.

Ephemeral sampling will provide in situ and near real-time data to guide response operations. The following areas are generally areas of concern and should be sampled under this plan:  open bay water areas  tidal inlets

 water intakes

 nearshore shallow subtidal sediments

 beaches

If any oiled or injured wildlife are observed, the location will be documented with GPS (and photo, if possible) and will be reported immediately to the Wildlife Alert Hotline: 888.404.3922

No attempts to collect oiled/injured wildlife will be made by the Sampling Team.

3.0 Health and Safety The Site Safety Officer prepares a Site Safety Plan addressing safety issues related to the incident. The Site Safety Plan addresses the principal safety and health hazards from boat and water operations and shoreline assessment and cleanup operations. The Site Safety Plan covers training, equipment safety, protective clothing and equipment, decontamination, and first aid.

Specific safety considerations for the ephemeral sampling plan include the following:

 Follow the Site Safety Plan.  Attend daily safety meetings.  Wear personal protective equipment.  Use personal flotation devices when transiting nearby or across water.

306 Tampa Bay Area Contingency Plan – 2012 ______ Watch for slips, trips, and falls.  Wearing hearing protection when designated.  Protect hands.  Operate equipment according to instructions.

Air monitoring will be conducted by CTEH on-board the sampling vessel in accordance with the approved air monitoring plan. All personnel entering the hot zone established in the immediate vicinity of the Motiva dock will be required to wear half-face respirators until such time that air monitoring is below allowable thresholds.

4.0 Objectives

Data and samples will be collected to document baseline and post-impact conditions within the water column and at the surface. Objectives include:

1. Collect water column samples outside of potentially affected areas to establish baseline conditions.

2. Collect surface sheen and water column samples at multiple depths within the observable impacted areas to determine presence/absence of diesel within the water column.

3. Collect recovered oil sample from frac tank to characterize for transportation/disposal purposes.

4. Collect sediment/soil in both unaffected and affected areas to establish baseline conditions and determine presence/absence of diesel in nearshore areas.

5. Collect oyster tissue samples to determine presence/absence of diesel and/or aid in re-opening of shellfish beds should there be closures.

This plan may be expanded to include additional sample locations and media based on updated trajectories. At Shell’s discretion, split samples may be collected and sent to Shell’s West Hollow, TX laboratory. Proposed chemical analyses and collection of split samples will be coordinated with Ileana Rhodes, Shell HSSE.

5.0 Source Oil Sampling

5.1 Sample Methods Source oil will be collected as soon as possible. Source oil will be collected in a 1-liter pre-cleaned glass jar with a Teflon lined cap. Do not let glove come into contact with petroleum. If gloves come into contact with the petroleum sample, change gloves and take another sample. If additional sources of oil are sampled, change gloves between each sample collection.

Prior to collecting samples, record date, time, source and type of sample, location (GPS), and note the datum- standard (WGS 84), of sample collection, and name of sample collected.

Mark the label as “Source Oil” using the following nomenclature:

SO-20141107-SOURCE-001

Additional samples may be labeled, -002, -003, etc.

Immediately place samples in ice chest with ice cubes or crushed ice, or place the sample in a refrigerator. Keep source oil sample(s) separate from other samples. During the holding period, the sample temperature should not exceed 6oC, or become frozen. Keeping the samples well packed in wet ice will keep the sample in the required temperature range. Store all oily rags, gloves, and other material in a plastic bag and dispose of in accordance with the approved waste management plan.

Samples will be shipped to Newfields Laboratory. Split samples for Shell will be sent to Shell’s West Hollow, TX laboratory for archival purposes.

307 Tampa Bay Area Contingency Plan – 2012 ______The shipment of source oil samples must be consistent with federal Department of Transportation regulations governing the shipment of flammable materials. Proper handling and chain of custody procedures as per the Quality Assurance Plan (QAP) will be followed.

5.2 Chemical Analyses A complete characterization of the source oil sample will be conducted, including PAH’s (EPA Method 8270-modified-GC/MS/SIM); BTEX (EPA Method 8240 GC/MS/SIM); density; boiling curve; metals; sulfur content; and weight fraction in oil of aromatics, naphthalene, total paraffins, asphaltenes/resins, and sulfur.

6.0 Recovered Oil Sampling

6.1 Sample Methods A sample of recovered oil will be collected from each frac tank in coordination with the waste team’s efforts to calculate water content. Each recovered oil sample will be collected in two, 1-liter pre-cleaned glass jars with Teflon lined caps. Do not let gloves come into contact with petroleum. If gloves come into contact with the petroleum sample, change gloves and take another sample. If additional sources of oil are sampled, change gloves between each sample collection.

Prior to collecting samples, record date, time, source and type of sample, location (GPS), and note the datum- standard (WGS 84), of sample collection, and name of sample collected.

Mark the label as “Recovered Oil” using the following nomenclature:

SO-20141107-REC-001

Additional samples may be labeled, -002, -003, etc.

Store all oily rags, gloves, and other material in a plastic bag and dispose of in accordance with the approved waste management plan.

Samples will be shipped to Newfields Laboratory and Shell’s West Hollow Laboratory. Proper handling and chain of custody procedures as per the Quality Assurance Plan (QAP) will be followed.

6.2 Chemical Analyses A complete characterization of the recovered oil samples will be conducted, including % water, % sediments, metals (arsenic, cadmium, chromium, lead), PCBs, Halogens, and Flash Point..

7.0 Water Column Sampling

7.1 Proposed Sample Locations

Trajectory modeling developed by NOAA will be used to guide sample locations. Baseline water column samples will be collected at the following locations:  Transect from the Howard Frankland Bridge south to Snell Island.  Transect from Gadsen Point at MacDill AFB to Snell Island.  Riviera Bay Inlet  Coffee Pot Bayou  Big Bayou  Duke Energy/Bartow Water Intake  Big Bend Power Plan

308 Tampa Bay Area Contingency Plan – 2012 ______Additional baseline sample locations may be identified based on updated trajectories. The sampling team coordinator will arrange for access by team in the vicinity of the MacDill Air Force Base since there is a security exclusion zone, if necessary.

Water column samples will be collected at the following locations within the observable impacted area: 1  Vicinity of Motiva Dock  Transects in center of observable oil/sheen from just north of the Gandy Bridge to Picnic Island  Transect in center of observable oil/sheen in center of shipping channel

Pre-impact and post-impact water samples will be collected at multiple depths in the water column. Water samples will be collected at the following pre-determined depths:

 6 inches below the water surface

 1 m below the water surface

One set of baseline water samples will be collected. Post-impact water samples will be collected at a rate of 1 set per day for the first 5-7 days and 1 set per week thereafter as appropriate.

7.2 Sample Methods

Sampling locations and associated GPS coordinates are identified in Figure 1. Depending on spill circumstances, alternate sampling locations may be selected. Field teams should record the GPS location where the sample is actually collected.

For water column samples (i.e., samples collected from a boat), the recommended sampler is the Ben Meadows Sub- Surface Grab Sampler. Water samples are collected in pre-cleaned (2) 1-liter amber-glass wide-mouth jars. Four, 1- liter samples will be collected at each proposed sampling location, two near the surface (~0.5m) and two from 1meter below surface.

Label sample jars after collecting samples using the following nomenclature,

SW-20141107-SURFACE-001, (6” below surface) SW- 20141107-DEPTH-001 (1m below surface)

Additional samples may be labeled, -002, -003, etc.

Prior to any sampling, and after marking the station location, photograph the sampling site. Take photos in both directions along the shore as well as from the waterline toward the backshore, and from the backshore to the waterline. Try to get permanent and distinctive landmarks in some photos and/or videos for future reference.

After decanting aliquots from the two 1-liter bottles into VOA vial (Section 6.2.1), seal the sample bottle and immediately place it in an ice chest with ice cubes or crushed ice to avoid breakage.

1 Personnel entering the hot zone should check with Safety to determine if additional PPE is required. Visible oil or sheen on the water surface should be moved aside with a water hose, compressed air, or paddle. Care should be taken not to disperse oil into the water column.

Avoid sampling downwind of solvents or engine exhaust. This is usually avoided by approaching the sampling location into the wind and current if practical.

At each sample location the field team will record conductivity, temperature, depth (CTD), salinity, and dissolved oxygen (DO) measurements in the field logbook to characterize the chemical and physical characteristics using a standard YSI, or similar, water quality meter.

Clean subsurface sampler and other sampling equipment with Alconox (distilled water rinse) between

309 Tampa Bay Area Contingency Plan – 2012 ______each sample collection. When decontaminating sampling equipment, wash and rinse over a plastic bucket with a lid and retain the wash water. Store all oily rags, gloves, and other material in a plastic bag. Dispose of rinse water and oil material in accordance with the approved waste management plan.

Water samples will be shipped to Newfields using proper handling and chain of custody procedures as per the Quality Assurance Plan (QAP).

7.2.1 BTEX

Samples - Aliquot from one of the 1-liter sample jars

Sample Vials: 40 mL glass, screw-cap vials with Teflon-faced silicone septum, containing 2 drops of analytical grade 6N hydrochloric acid as a preservative.

Sample Procedures: After collecting (2) 1-liter bulk samples, gently pour some of this water sample into VOA bottle to avoid bubble formation. Fill vial until the meniscus forms over the vial’s lip. If sea conditions are difficult, collect the best sample possible and note conditions of sample collection in the field book. Cover with screw-cap lid, tighten lid and invert the bottle and tap end to check for air bubbles. If bubbles are present, pour out the sample and resample with a new VOA bottle.

7.2.2 Total Petroleum Hydrocarbon and Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon Samples

Sample Jars: Pre-cleaned (2) 1-liter, amber-glass wide mouth jars.

Sample Procedures: After decanting the 40-mL aliquot, cover the 1-liter jar with screw-cap lid and tighten.

Sample storage: Immediately place labeled samples in an ice chest with ice cubes or crushed ice.

7.2.3 Quality Control Samples

Quality control samples will be collected at a rate of one QC sample per 20 samples (5%). Matrix spike and matrix spike duplicate (MS/MSD) samples and field duplicate samples (FD) will be collected. Trip blanks will be provided for every cooler containing 40-mL VOA vials for BTEX analysis.

One trip blank and one field blank for BTEX, PAH, and TPH analyses will be collected. Before leaving for the field, each field team should prepare one trip blank and one field blank by filling (1) 1-liter, wide- mouth amber sampling bottle and (2) 40-mL VOA bottles with distilled water. Trip blanks are to remain sealed and in the ice chest during sample collection. Each field team will open their field blank at one sampling site of their choosing while samples are collected at that site. After all the samples at that site are collected, the field blank will be sealed and placed in the ice chest with the rest of the samples. A distilled or de-ionized water blank (un-opened bottle from the same production lot, if possible, as the make-up water for the trip and field blanks) should be sealed and saved for possible analysis, if necessary.

7.3 Chemical Analyses

The initial round of water column samples will be analyzed for SHC + TPH (DRO) (EPA Methods 8015, GC/FID, extended range), PAH’s (EPA Method 8270-modified-GC/MS/SIM), and BTEX (EPA Method 8240 GC/MS/SIM). Laboratory results will determine when it is appropriate to reduce the list of analyses.

8.0 Sheen Samples 8.1 Proposed Sample Locations Sheen samples will be opportunistically collected if they are encountered during water sampling activities. Additional samples of the spilled oil will be collected periodically to document the degree and 310 Tampa Bay Area Contingency Plan – 2012 ______rate of weathering and provide an understanding of changes in the oil properties through time. These samples will be taken at the rate of 1 per day for the first 5-7 days and 1 per week thereafter as appropriate.

Sheen samples will be collected if feasible at the following locations within the observable impacted area: 2  Vicinity of Motiva Dock, outside safety zone  Transect in center of shipping channel from just north of Picnic Island south to end of visible sheen, approximately 3 samples

8.2 Sample Methods

Samples will be collected using Teflon nets with disposable nylon handles (e.g., General Oceanics, or equivalent). Aluminum, expandable wading rods with a fitting to hold sampling nets may be needed to collect samples. Sampling nets should be gently wiped along the sheen surface. The sheen will adhere to the Teflon net, but several passes may be necessary to visibly collect enough sheen/oil on the net.

Label sample containers after collecting samples using the following nomenclature,

SW-20141107-SHEEN-001

Additional samples may be labeled, -002, -003, etc.

Prior to any sampling, field teams will mark the station location with GPS, photograph or video the sampling site. Take video and/or the photos in both directions along the shore as well as from the waterline toward the backshore, and from the backshore to the waterline. Try to get permanent and distinctive landmarks in some photos and/or videos for future reference.

Immediately place samples in an ice chest with ice cubes or crushed ice. Samples will be shipped to Newfields Laboratory for analysis.

8.3 Chemical Analyses

Samples will be fingerprinted and evaluated for biogenic and petrogenic components to understand the contribution of oil to the sheen.

9.0 Nearshore Soil/Sediment Sampling

2 Personnel entering the hot zone should check with Safety to determine if additional PPE is required. 9.1 Proposed Sample Locations

Trajectory modeling developed by NOAA will be used to guide sample locations. Baseline sediment samples will be collected at the following nearshore and onshore locations:

 Riviera Bay Inlet  Coffee Pot Bayou  Big Bayou  Picnic Island Beach  Pelican Cove

Additional baseline sample locations may be identified based on updated trajectories. The sampling team coordinator will arrange for access by team in the vicinity of the MacDill Air Force Base since there is a security exclusion zone, if necessary.

Sediment samples will be collected at the following nearshore and onshore locations within the observable impacted area:  Adjacent to mangroves and seagrass beds on east and west shorelines in vicinity of Motiva 3 Dock 311 Tampa Bay Area Contingency Plan – 2012 ______ Beach on east shoreline just north of Gandy Bridge

Sampling locations and associated GPS coordinates for nearshore/onshore sediments are identified in Figure 1. Because of the nature of the products handled at the terminal, it is unlikely that spilled products will sink, so the collection of sediment samples from off-shore stations will not be a priority. The sampling team should evaluate the potential need for offshore sediment samples in light of spill circumstances.

The field team should conduct a brief survey of the shoreline to look for obviously oiled sediment, rock, intertidal organisms, feathers, or debris. If hydrocarbons or hydrocarbon stains are observed, collect a sample of the oiled material and place it in a sample jar. Label and store as described below. After collecting a sample of the oiled material, proceed with sediment sampling as described in Section 8.2.

9.2 Sample Methods

9.2.1 Sandy Shorelines/Onshore

Along sandy shorelines, the shoreline should be divided into three approximately equal transects located perpendicularly to the shoreline. Collect one sediment sample from each transect by compositing approximately equal sub-samples of sediment from the low, mid, and high intertidal areas of the beach. Each of the three composite sediment samples should, therefore, consist of approximately equal sub- samples (i.e. ~1/3 each) collected along each transect from the low, mid, and high intertidal area of the beach. Samples should be collected using a pre-cleaned or disposable stainless steel trowel, spoon, spatula, or scoop. Each sub-sample should be collected from the top 2cm of sediment. Place each composited sample into an 8-oz. screw-cap jar (provided in sampling kit) with Teflon liners, preferably glassware pre- cleaned by the analytical laboratory. Larger or smaller pre-cleaned jars are acceptable. Fill jar completely with sediment (at least 100 mL).

3 Samples will not be collected within seagrass beds in order to avoid potential damage to this sensitive resource.

Label sample jars after collecting samples using the following nomenclature,

SD-20141107- BEACH-001

Additional samples may be labeled, -002, -003, etc.

Wash all equipment that will be used to collect sample with solvent (preferably methanol or methylene chloride) or Alconox detergent and rinse completely with distilled water prior to use and between each sample collection to prevent cross-contamination of samples. Equipment to be cleaned includes shovels, trowels, spatulas, mixing bowls, cores, etc. Collect rinse water in a container with a lid and dispose of in accordance with the waste management plan prepared by the Environmental Unit.

Immediately place samples in an ice chest with ice cubes or crushed ice. Samples will be shipped to Newfields Laboratory for analysis.

Avoid cross-contamination by cleaning boots between sampling sites. If disposable Tyvec shoe covers are available, they may be used and changed between sample locations. Place the shoe covers in a plastic bag and dispose of according to the waste management plan prepared by the Environmental Unit.

9.2.2 Nearshore Sediments

In nearshore areas, a grab sampler (e.g., Petite Ponar, Ponar, Ekman) will be used to collect subtidal sediment samples. These samplers generally do not penetrate more than several centimeters into the sediment/soil. Grab samplers cannot 312 Tampa Bay Area Contingency Plan – 2012 ______collect sediment samples without causing a disruption, so only use them after all overlying water samples have been collected.

Lower the grab sampler until the proximity sample mark is reached, and continue to slowly lower the sampler until it touches the sediment. Allow the sample line to slacken a few inches; allow extra slack if there are strong currents. Release the mechanism to trap the sample and retrieve the sampler. If rock or other debris is caught in the sampler’s jaws, the sample is considered unacceptable and should be discarded. Redeploy the sampler to obtain a new sample.

To form a composite sample from more than one grab sample, follow procedures outlines in step 3 of the scoop or trowel sampling procedure above. To minimize handling, subsample one grab sample. The grab sampler will have hinged or removable bucket covers (e.g., Ponar) so the sample can be easily accessed. Remove the overlying water via a slow siphon. Use a pre-cleaned spoon or scoop made of inert material to subsample. Avoid sediments in direct contact with the sides of the grab sampler to avoid contamination. Place the subsample in an appropriate sample container(s).

Label sample jars after collecting samples using the following nomenclature,

SD-20141107-SUBTIDAL-001,

Additional samples may be labeled, -002, -003, etc.

Immediately place samples in an ice chest with ice cubes or crushed ice. Samples will be shipped to Newfields Laboratory for analysis.

9.3 Chemical Analyses

Sediment samples will be analyzed for TPH (EPA Method 8015, GC/FID, extended range), PAH’s (EPA Method 8270-modified-GC/MS/SIM), and TOC.

10.0 Oyster Tissue Sampling

10.1 Proposed Sample Locations Oyster samples should be collected where available at 3-4 shellfish locations, both within and outside the affected area. Shellfish locations are depicted on Figure 1. The sampling team will determine exact sampling locations in the field based on suitability and availability of oysters.

10.2 Sample Methods For each sample, collect 15-30 individuals of the same species (enough for at least a 30 g tissue/ sample). Remove the animals from the rocky shore or surface of the sediment, and rinse the debris and sediment from their shells using (in order of preference) distilled water, clean tap water, or clean seawater. Place rinsed, whole oysters on the dull side of heavy- duty aluminum foil, preferably pre-rinsed or washed with (in order of preference) Alconox detergent, distilled water, or clean tap water. Place the aluminum- wrapped oysters in two zip-locked freezer bags. Place the sample label between the two freezer bags.

313 Tampa Bay Area Contingency Plan – 2012 ______Prior to any sampling, field teams will mark the station location with GPS, photograph or video the sampling site. Take video and/or the photos in both directions along the shore as well as from the waterline toward the backshore, and from the backshore to the waterline. Try to get permanent and distinctive landmarks in some photos and/or videos for future reference.

Label sample bags after collecting samples using the following nomenclature,

TI-20141107-OYSTER-001,

Additional samples may be labeled, -002, -003, etc.

Wash all equipment that will be used to collect sample with solvent (preferably methanol or methylene chloride) or Alconox detergent and rinse completely with distilled water prior to use and between each sample collection to prevent cross-contamination of samples. Collect rinse water in a container and dispose of appropriately in accordance to the waste management plan prepared by the Environmental Unit.

Store samples in an ice cooler with ice cubes or crushed ice. Transport as soon as practical to a secure freezer where the samples can be stored at -20°C until they can be shipped to the laboratory.

10.3 Chemical Analyses

Tissue samples will be archived and potentially analyzed for PAH’s (EPA Method 8270-modified- GC/MS/SIM), BTEX (EPA Method 8240 GC/MS/SIM). Request lipid and water content and report the results as dry weight.

APPENDIX A

Quality Assurance/Quality Control Program

1. Purpose, Objective, Goal, Focus, and Scope of Environmental Data Collection

 Goals and Objectives : To confirm the source of the spilled oil(s) and determine impacts to the environment by collecting water, sediment, and selected marine organism samples  Focus of Sample Collection: Collection of samples should generally focus on the following media and areas: i. Source oil(s) to confirm the release is the source of the oil found in the environment and for possible toxicological testing); ii. Water and sediment samples from areas that could be or were impacted as well as reference sites; iii. Water samples under the slick to obtain information on the concentration of selected petroleum constituents in the water column.  Study Area: Primarily the area that is projected to be, or has been, impacted following a spill but should also include other ecologically or culturally sensitive areas within the entire zone that could be impacted.

2. Safety

Safety is the most important consideration when implementing data collection activities. All field team members will read the incident-specific site safety plan and receive a daily safety briefing before going into the field. Field team members collecting samples by boat will receive a boat safety briefing by the boat operator prior to leaving the dock.

When on the water, field team members will wear personal floatation devices at all times. Good judgment must be used, particularly when considering fieldwork during inclement weather. No sampling will be conducted in the dark. Field team members should wear safety glasses, sunscreen, appropriate footwear, and other personal protective equipment (PPE) as might be required by the Safety Officer and follow the applicable personnel monitoring safety plan. Nitrile gloves will be worn when collecting samples and must be changed between each sampling site to avoid cross-contamination. Any incident will be promptly reported in accordance with the site-specific site safety plan.

3. General Sampling Procedures

3.1 Introduction This section describes suggested general methods for collecting source oil, water, sediment, stranded oil, and biological samples. The methods described herein are not intended to be prescriptive and must be determined, on a case by case basis, appropriate methods given their particular data needs as well as situational and resource limitations.

Methodologies will often be determined by specialists hired to collect specific types of data. Regarding samples collected for chemical analyses, sampling methods and other protocols should be coordinated, to the extent possible, with the laboratory that will be conducting the analyses.

3.2 Recordkeeping and Chain of Custody (COC) Record keeping should include the following:  Field sampling record for each field team. Each team should assign this to a specific member of the team. At the end of each day or field sampling trip, the time and date should be noted

316 Tampa Bay Area Contingency Plan – 2012 ______

and the record keeper should sign the field record. Information in the record should include sampling details (i.e., sampler name, sample type, location, and time) and other observations (i.e., presence of wildlife and humans, oil observations, weather).  Photo log, signed and time/dated at end of each day.  Chain-of-custody forms for all samples properly filled out and signed per COC procedures.  Contact list for all sampling team members with address, phone, cell phone, pager, fax, email, etc.  Record GPS positions as follows: lat NDD.ddddd; lon WDD.ddddd; WGS 84 datum.

Chain-of-custody must be maintained at all times. Chain-of-custody means that the sample or data are under the possession and control of the person identified on the form for the period specified on the form. Possession and control can mean literally in possession, within sight, or in secure storage where the access is limited to the person in possession. The person relinquishing the samples and the person taking control of the samples need to sign the chain-of-custody form.

Before shipping samples:  make sure that each chain-of-custody form is filled out completely and properly,  check that the sample identification on sample bottles matches the sample identification on the chain-of-custody, and  ensure the date, time, type, matrix, container types, and analyses requested are clearly indicated.

After the chain-of-custody has been checked and verified, sign where indicated in the “Relinquish By” box at the bottom of the form. Make sure that the date and time that you relinquished the samples are recorded on the chain-of–custody. Put the chain-of-custody forms in a zip lock bag and place the bag in the ice chest. Remember to put ice in the ice chest and tape the lid shut with duct tape. Take the ice chest to an over-night courier service and ship the samples to the lab as directed. When the ice chest is received at the lab, the person accepting the samples will sign his or her name in the “Received By” box on the bottom of the chain-of-custody form. The original chain-of-custody form always goes with the samples. Upon receipt of the samples, request the laboratory to send a copy of the chain-of-custody to the sender.

3.3 Sample Storage Most samples can be temporarily stored in appropriate containers in ice chests with ice cubes or crushed ice, or placed in a refrigerator. During the holding period, the sample temperature should not exceed 6oC, or become frozen. Keeping the samples well packed in wet ice will keep the sample in the required temperature range.

3.4 Labeling Label sample jar using a permanent marker just before collecting samples if possible and cover label with clear tape. Include the following information on the sample label:  sample number;  sample type (e.g., source oil, sediment, water, etc.);  date, time, and location of sample collection; and  collector’s name.

3.5 Photo-Documentation Prior to conducting any sampling and after marking the station location and/or recording the GPS coordinates, photographs or videos should be taken of the sampling site. Recommend using a program or camera that will automatically put GPS coordinates on your digital photographs. For offshore sites within reasonable distance from the land, take photos or video directly towards the shore as well as upshore and downshore directions. In both cases, try to get permanent and distinctive landmarks in some photos and/or videos for future reference. In all cases, include a permanent or distinctive landmark or some measure of scale in photos or videos for future reference. 317 Tampa Bay Area Contingency Plan – 2012 ______

3.6 Airborne Contamination Avoid sampling or storage of equipment downwind of solvents or engine exhaust. This is particularly the case for samples that will be analyzed for volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and usually avoided by approaching the sampling location into the wind and current if practical.

3.7 Decontamination and Waste Handling Clean sampling equipment with an Alconox and water solution followed by two distilled water rinses between each sample collection. Methanol may also be used to clean sampling equipment. When decontaminating sampling equipment, wash and rinse over a plastic bucket with a lid and retain the wash water. Store all oily rags, gloves, and other material in a plastic bag. Dispose of rinse water and oil material in accordance with the waste management plan prepared by the Environmental Unit.

4.0 Sampling Guidelines

4.1 Source Oil Sampling It is critical that all sources of spilled oil be identified and sampled to enable forensics analyses and toxicity testing of the source oil as well as comparison to the oil that may be detected in samples collected from various media. Analytical methods are discussed in Section 5.0 of this appendix. Source oil sample(s) should be separated from other samples.  Timing: Collect as soon as possible.  Where to Sample: If possible, collect oil samples from the facility storage tank(s), vessel compartment(s), well head(s) or pipeline(s) from which the spill originated. If all of the oil has been released from the tank or compartment, then collect the sample from the water or land surface as close to the source as possible or safe to access. If there is only a sheen on water, float four 3 x 12 inch pieces of fiberglass cloth on the surface of the water to absorb the oil and submit the cloth for analyes.  Sample Equipment: Sample equipment for collecting source oil generally consists of a drum thief, sample bomb, bailer, or other similar devices. In many cases, samples can be collected by simply dipping a sample jar into the oil.  Sample Volume: 1 liter if oil and water; at least 30 ml if neat oil. Collect in triplicate.  Sample Container: Pre-cleaned, glass jar with Teflon lined cap. Do not let glove come into contact with petroleum. If gloves come into contact with the petroleum sample, change gloves and take another sample. If additional sources of oil are sampled, change gloves between each sample collection.  Labeling: Mark the label as “Source Oil” using a permanent marker and, being as specific as possible, include the following information: � Type of product spilled (e.g., diesel, bunker fuel, gasoline); � Source of the spilled product (e.g., name of the vessel transporting product); � Fuel tank of vessel transporting the product); � Sample number; � Date and time; and � Collector’s name.

4.2 Water Sampling The primary purpose of collecting water samples is to determine the concentrations of petroleum components in the water as a result of the release by sampling the impacted area. It is also intended to establish background or baseline concentrations by sampling nearby un-impacted areas. The more toxic components generally include VOCs (e.g., benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylenes) and low molecular weight polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), as well as other PAHs that may contribute to chronic toxicity (e.g., benzo[a]pyrene). Analytical methods are provided in Section 5.0 of this appendix.

318 Tampa Bay Area Contingency Plan – 2012 ______

The secondary purpose is to determine the concentration of the petroleum hydrocarbons (both baseline and post-release) that may have entered the water column from physical processes such as mixing, dispersion, dissolution, etc. and/or adsorption to suspended particles or other materials. The concentrations of petroleum hydrocarbons in the water column are highest in the first few hours to one day following a release and then decrease rapidly. Therefore, it is critical that samples be collected as soon as possible during the first day after the release occurs.

Water samples should be collected from both oiled and unoiled areas and from off-shore areas as specified in Section 6.2 of the Ephemeral Sampling Plan.  Timing: Prior to oil impacting the sampling area and as soon as possible after impact and periodically thereafter if practical.  Where to Sample: Sampling locations should be representative of the areas that have been, or are likely to become, impacted by the spill (open water, sheltered bays, industrial waterfronts, undeveloped shorelines, etc.). Sampling locations should be identified by GPS coordinates. On-shore water samples can be collected in conjunction with onshore sediment sampling described in Section 6.3 of the Ephemeral Sampling Plan. Collect at least one set of water samples from the seaward end of the three transects at each sample site.  Sampling Equipment: For off-shore samples, a sub-surface grab sampler should be used. The sub-surface sampler can also be used to collect samples from the intertidal areas. If a subsurface sampler is not available, the top of the sample jar can be positioned beneath the water surface and the lid removed to fill the jar and then replaced prior to bringing the jar to the surface.  Sample Volume: Water samples are collected in one, pre-cleaned 1 liter, amber-glass wide- mouth jars and three, 40 ml glass, screw-cap vials with Teflon-faced silicone septum, containing 2 drops of analytical grade 6N hydrochloric acid as a preservative. The 1-liter sample will be used for analyses of PAHs and the 40 ml vials for VOCs.  Number of Samples and Collection Depth: � Off-shore: Collect at least one 1-liter and three 40 ml water samples at depths identified in Section 6.2 of the Ephemeral Sampling Plan, if possible, from each location. � Near-shore: Collect at least one 1-liter and three 40 ml water samples between the surface and the bottom in the surf/intertidal zone, or at approximately 0.5 m if the water is more than 1 m deep at the sampling point. Near-shore water samples can be collected in conjunction with sediment sampling described in Section 6.3 of the Ephemeral Sampling Plan. � Sampling Through Slick: Visible oil present on the water surface should be moved aside with a water hose, compressed air, or paddle. Care should be taken not to disperse oil into the water column.  Collection of VOA Samples in 40 ml Vials: To virtually eliminate the potential for loss of volatile hydrocarbons, collect a sub-surface sample by lowering the jar or VOA vial beneath the surface, removing the lid allowing the jar or VOA vial to fill completely, and replacing the lid while the jar is still under water. Attempt to keep the jar or VOA vial at least one-foot beneath the surface while collecting the sample to prevent surface oil from entering the jar or VOA vials.

If necessary, a bulk sample can be collected and water transferred to VOA jars. From the bulk sample, gently pour some of this water sample into VOA bottle to avoid bubble formation. Fill vial until the meniscus forms over the vial’s lip. If sea conditions are difficult, collect the best sample possible and note conditions of sample collection in the field book. Cover with screw-cap lid, tighten lid and invert the bottle and tap end to check for air bubbles. If bubbles are present, pour out the sample and resample with a new VOA vial.

319 Tampa Bay Area Contingency Plan – 2012 ______

 Trip and Field Blanks: Both near-shore and off-shore field teams should carry one trip blank and one field blank each for the VOA and PAH/TPH analyses. Before leaving for the field, each field team should prepare one trip blank and one field blank by filling two, 1- liter, wide- mouth amber sampling bottles and six 40 mL VOA bottles with distilled water. Trip blanks are to remain sealed and in the ice chest during sample collection.

Each field team will open their field blank at one sampling site of their choosing while samples are collected at that site exposing the sample to any airborne contaminates that could be present. After all the samples at that site are collected, the field blank will be sealed and placed in the ice chest with the rest of the samples. Distilled or de-ionized water blanks (un- opened bottle from the same production lot, if possible, as the make-up water for the trip and field blanks) should be sealed and saved for possible analysis, if necessary.

4.3 Sediment Sampling Sediment samples should be collected in both oiled and un-oiled areas at the spill location. The purpose of sampling in un-oiled areas is to determine baseline conditions of oil components, especially toxic compounds such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH), that existed prior to being impacted by an oil spill. The sampling of impacted areas is intended to determine what portion of the petroleum hydrocarbon mixture present in the sediments as a result of the spill by comparison to baseline conditions. If oil is present in samples, fingerprinting may be conducted to determine the source. Where practical, collect samples in areas with fine-grained. If samples must be collected in areas with coarse-grained materials, remove the overlying gravel/cobble layer and sample the underlying finer-grained sediment. Analytical methods are provided in Section 5.0 of this appendix.  Where to Sample: For offshore areas near the source and at reference locations, sediment samples should be collected using a box core, or VanVeen (clam shell) sampler. The top 20 cm of sediment should be collected for analyses. Reference sites for collecting background related sediment samples should have a similar grain size distribution as the spill site.  Sampling Equipment: Pre-cleaned or disposable stainless steel trowel, spoon, spatula, or scoop and stainless steel bowl.  Depth of Sample: Approximately 2 cm deep.  Sample Containers and Volume by Analytical Method: o Option A. Field Compositing . TPH: pre-cleaned 8-oz. wide-mouth glass jars, screw-cap with Teflon liner. . PAHs: pre-cleaned 8-oz. wide-mouth glass jars, screw-cap with Teflon liner. . TOC: pre-cleaned 4-oz. wide-mouth glass jars, screw-cap with Teflon liner. . Grain size: 4 to 8 oz plastic jar, Ziploc bag, or whirl-pack baggie (fill adequately to the equivalent of a 4 to 8 oz plastic jar). o Option B. Collection of Bulk samples for Laboratory Compositing . TPH, PAHs, TOC and grain size: Collect bulk samples in pre-cleaned 1-liter wide- mouth glass jars, screw-cap with Teflon liner. Laboratory will homogenize and split for appropriate analyses.  Sample Collection: Each composite sediment sample should include at least five subsamples collected within a 2-m radius from each of the three sample stations on each transect. Collect sediment with a pre-cleaned stainless steel spoon, removing only the top 2 cm.

Option A. Field Compositing: Place sediment into a pre-cleaned stainless steel bowl, collecting enough sediment to fill the three containers listed above ¾ full. Once enough sediment has been collected, mix the sub-samples thoroughly until the sediment appears homogeneous. Remove rocks and debris that are not representative of the typical sediment type being sampled. Use the spoon to fill the jars from the composite sample in the bowl. Decontaminate (or discard disposable) equipment between each sample collection.

320 Tampa Bay Area Contingency Plan – 2012 ______

Option B. Collection of Bulk samples for Laboratory Compositing: Place sediment samples into a pre-cleaned 1-liter jar, collecting enough sediment to fill each container(s). Laboratory will homogenize and process samples for total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH), PAHs, total organic carbon (TOC) and grain size as appropriate. Other considerations include avoiding cross-contamination by cleaning boots and replacing gloves between sampling sites. If disposable Tyvek shoe covers are available, they may be used and changed between sample locations.

4.4 Quality Control Samples Quality control samples will be collected at a rate of one QC sample per 20 samples (5%). Matrix spike and matrix spike duplicate (MS/MSD) samples and field duplicate samples (FD) will be collected. Equipment blanks will be collected when using decontaminated reusable equipment such as GO-FLO bottles. Trip blanks will be provided for every cooler containing 40-ml VOA vials for VOC analysis.

 In addition to collection of primary samples for characterizing field conditions (see Sections 4.1 to 4.5), there are five types of samples described below that are considered quality control (QC) samples. For laboratory QC testing, QC samples are typically collected at five percent of the total number of sampled stations. For example, if 40 stations are to be sampled, extra material is needed from two stations for laboratory duplicate samples and from two other stations for laboratory matrix spike samples. These QC samples are in addition to any field replicate samples.  Field Replicates: These samples are unknown to the laboratory and are independently collected samples at the same station as the primary field sample (i.e., they are two separate composites collected at the same station and at the same time).  Laboratory Duplicates: Samples that are split at the laboratory to check on the precision of the analyses.  Matrix Spikes: Samples also prepared at the laboratory and spiked with a known concentration of a chemical to verify recovery of the chemicals requested for analysis from the particular medium being tested.  Rinsate Samples: Following field decontamination of sampling equipment, distilled water is poured through or over the equipment and collected in a sample container for analyses. This to determine if there is residual contamination of equipment that might be carried over to another set of samples. Collection of equipment rinsates is discretionary and is only a concern with cross-contamination between samples. This can be avoided by using disposable sampling gear or strictly adhering to decontamination procedures described in Section 3.8.  “Trip” Blanks: Consist of sample containers filled with distilled water and simply accompany the samples in the cooler and require no handling. They are provided by the laboratory when VOA samples are being collected for the analysis of volatile organic compound (VOC). Trip blanks are unnecessary for other kinds of analyses.

5.0 Chemical Analyses Two important considerations are:  Exposure of natural resources to oil that is present in the water or sediment, and/or on/in organisms; and  Detected oil is from the spill and not some other source.

A qualified laboratory should analyze the samples of oil, sediment, water, and tissues. A Toxicology Specialist or chemist will make the decisions about what samples will be analyzed, the methods to be used and the necessary Quality Control/Quality Assurance standards.. The following sections are for background information and provide a general description of the typical analyses that may be requested

321 Tampa Bay Area Contingency Plan – 2012 ______from the analytical laboratory. In all cases, a complete data reporting package should be requested from the laboratory including the standard operating procedures (SOPs), complete gas chromatograph/mass spectrometer/selective ion monitoring (GC/MS/SIM) chromatograms and results, and the associated QA/QC analyses. Data and chromatograms should also be provided as electronic files on CD (PDF files of initial and final reporting packages can also be requested of the laboratory for e-mail delivery).

5.1 Methods and Analyses The following methods and analyses may be requested. The Environmental Unit or Toxicology Specialist will make decisions on sample analyses prior to expiration of holding times.  Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs): VOCs, including BTEX (benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene and xylene) as well as other aromatic and non-aromatic compounds, are easily dispersed in water but evaporate quickly. For this reason, sampling for BTEX and other toxic volatile compounds are of high priority during ephemeral sampling efforts following oil spills. For oil spill applications, the standard purge and trap extraction and analysis by EPA Method 8260B (GC/MS with capillary column) should be modified by running the GC/MS in SIM or in full scan mode to include the higher alkylated benzenes (i.e., a benzene ring with alkyl side chains containing 3 to 5 carbons). Detection limits should be less than 2 parts per billion (ppb) for individual analytes; 0.1 ppb is easily achievable in SIM mode.  Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons (TPH): Total hydrocarbons are often referred to as total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH), but most TPH methods do not differentiate among petroleum, petrogenic, and biogenic hydrocarbons when simply reported as totals. For litigation or natural resource damage cases, results from these methods will not provide the data needed to support calculation of toxic effects from BTEX or PAH exposure. The TPH results, however, can be used to track oil weathering and map extent of exposure of water column resources, if meaningful detection limits can be reached. TPH also can be used as a screening tool to estimate the presence and amount of hydrocarbons in the sample media and provide an indication of which samples should receive highest priority for more extensive analyses. TPH by EPA Method 8015 (aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons, and other nonchlorinated volatile organic compounds) is often the preferred method for analysis of “total hydrocarbons”. This method, which uses a GC and flame ionization detector (FID), provides a direct measure of total hydrocarbons in the gasoline- and diesel- and heavy oil-range and has a low detection limit compared with that of infrared methods. This method does not detect low boiling compounds (below n-C8).  Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAH): Quantification of PAHs can be useful because it provides an indication of the toxicity of a given spill to range of organisms. However, PAH analyses are relatively expensive and require some special considerations. In addition to the standard PAH priority pollutants (“parent” PAH compounds), the list of PAH analytes should, if possible, include the alkylated homologues and other compounds of interest, using GC/MS in SIM mode. EPA Method 8270 (GC/MS) for semi-volatile compounds would be the method of choice for this analysis. Detection levels should be 0.1 ppb for individual PAHs to support toxicity determinations.

322 Tampa Bay Area Contingency Plan – 2012 ______ Biological Markers: Analysis of biological marker compounds (i.e., steranes, hopanes and others) may also be desired if oil fingerprinting is needed. Analytical fingerprinting methods vary by laboratory and should be reviewed by the interested parties (regulators and the responsible party) prior to analyses. EPA Method 8270 can be modified for biomarker analyses.

5.2 Recommended Analyses by Media  Source Oil Sample: Complete characterization, including PAH’s (EPA Method 8270- GC/MS); BTEX (EPA Method 8260B GC/MS); TPH (EPA Method 8015); density; boiling curve; metals; sulfur content; and weight fraction in oil of aromatics, naphthenes, total paraffins, asphaltenes/resins, and sulfur. Fingerprinting should be conducted if needed.  Water Samples: TPH (EPA Method 8015, GC/FID, extended range), PAH’s (EPA Method 8270-GC/MS), BTEX (EPA Method 8240 GC/MS). Fingerprinting should be conducted if needed. Sediment Samples: TPH (EPA Method 8015, GC/FID, extended range), PAR's (EPA Method 8270 -GC/MS). Ask the laboratory to determine total organic carbon of the sediment. Fingerprinting should be conducted if needed

1.0 INTRODUCTION

The objectives of the Shoreline Cleanup Assessment Technique (SCAT) team for the Old Port Tampa Exercise 2014 is based on the habitat types, extent and phase of product (oil and sheen) are as listed below. The release entered an open water area near the Motiva Old Port Tampa Facility (see Figure 1). The SCAT objectives are to:

 Delineate the geographical reach of the release.  Identify the habitat types within the release area.  Determine the degree of oiling along the shorelines and open water areas  Make cleanup recommendations based on habitat types and degrees of oiling.  Develop cleanup end points.

2.0 INITIAL RECONNAISSANCE SURVEY

The aerial (helicopter) and ground (boat) reconnaissance will provide information on the overall extent of the release in confirming geographical reaches and identify any potential logistical issues for SCAT; specifically access points to surface waters.

3.0 SCAT SURVEY

In general, the SCAT survey will gather data to identify the location of oiled/sheen habitats; prioritize geographical reaches for cleanup and determine the most appropriate cleanup method(s) for the geographical reach. SCAT team members should be trained in SCAT prior to deployment. SCAT teams will be calibrated to ensure all nomenclature, field observations and mission objectives are consistent between teams. Teams will complete SCAT forms (Attachment A) for each segment surveyed. All SCAT surveys will be conducted in accordance with the Response Safety Plan.

For this incident, four (4) SCAT teams will conduct SCAT surveys in assigned SCAT Divisions (Figure 1). SCAT teams will consist of, at a minimum:

 Two (2) State on Scene Coordinator (SOSC) representative from:  Florida Department of Environmental Protection (DEP)  Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC)

 One (1) Federal on Scene Coordinator (FOSC) representative from  U.S. Coast Guard (USCG) or,  National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) or,  U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS)

 One (1) Responsible Party (RP) representative from  CK Associates (CK) [ RP Contractor] or  Shell (RP)

SCAT teams will conduct daily surveys until Unified Command (UC) directs otherwise. Following the daily surveys, SCAT teams will transfer completed SCAT forms, GPS data and photographs to the SCAT Data Manager for processing at the Incident Command Center (ICC). SCAT Team Leaders will attend a daily SCAT De-briefing Meeting with the SCAT Manager and Environmental 345 Tampa Bay Area Contingency Plan – 2012 ______

Unit Leader prior to the afternoon Planning Meeting.

4.0 CLEANUP RECOMMENDATIONS

Cleanup recommendations will be prepared for each segment. The following cleanup methods are best suited for shoreline cleanup operations:

 Natural Recovery No action is taken other than monitoring.  Physical Herding Diverting oil with water or air hoses to containment and recovery areas.  Manual Oil Removal Removal of surface oil using hands, rakes, shovels, buckets, scrapers, pitchforks, etc.  Mechanical Oil Removal Removal of oil using backhoes, graders, bulldozers or other mechanical equipment not specifically designed for pollution response.  Sorbents Using sorbent boom, pads, rolls etc. to remove floating or surface oil.  Vacuum Removal of oil via a vacuum unit that is attached to a truck or vessel.  Debris Removal Manual or mechanical removal of oiled debris such as driftwood, seaweed, trash, wreckage.  Sediment Reworking Tilling, disking or otherwise mixing the oiled sediments in order to break up oily sediments and enhance the rate of degradation.  Vegetation Cutting/Removal (not applicable in mangrove communities) Oiled vegetation is cut and removed to prevent oiling of wildlife or secondary releases. Site specific approval by SOSC required.  Flooding Water is flooded into the area to wash stranded oil to the water’s edge for collection.  Low-pressure Flushing Low-pressure water is sprayed to remove oil that has adhered to substrate or man- made structures.  High-pressure Flushing High-pressure water is sprayed to remove sticky or viscous oil that has adhered to substrates or man-made structures. Site specific approval by SOSC required.

346 Tampa Bay Area Contingency Plan – 2012 ______

5.0 CLEANUP END POINTS

The endpoints for the release have been selected based on the following cleanup objectives:

 Minimize exposure hazards for human health;  Expedited recovery of impacted areas; and  Reduce the potential for additional or prolonged natural resource impacts.

Endpoints are a joint determination under the Incident Command with the agencies. The following endpoints have been chosen based on the habitat type and use:

 Solid Man-made Structures (i.e. rip-rap) Cleanup will be terminated when the structure no longer releases liquid oil and heavy sheens when in contact with water. Visible oil can remain as stain and patches of coat on the outer surface.

For areas of high public use, more intensive cleanup will be conducted to remove the oil until it no longer rubs off on contact to minimize human contact or oiling of boats. In areas of low public use, visible oil can remain as stain and patches of coat; provided that there are no continuous sheening.

 Forested Wetlands Gross oil removal will be terminated when further cleanup efforts would result in habitat disruption, causing more harm than natural removal of oil residues.

Use of sorbents will continue after gross removal is terminated or until the areas no longer release sheens that will affect wildlife or human health.

 Marshes, Mangroves, Tidal Creeks and Mudflats Gross cleanup will be terminated when further cleanup efforts would result in habitat disruption, causing more harm than natural removal of oil residues. Use of sorbents will continue after gross removal is terminated until the area no longer releases sheens that will affect wildlife or human health.

1.0 INTRODUCTION

The Wildlife Response Plan has been developed for use by Motiva to address any impacts to wildlife that may occur as a result of a vessel collision that occurred on November 5, 2014 near the Motiva Old Port Tampa Facility.

The objectives of the Wildlife Response Plan are: 1) Reduce Environmental Risk from oil: a. Support recovery via skimming (skimming activities will be outlined under another plan), including guidance from NOAA on skimming operations related to endangered species & EFH. b. Keep oil from sensitive areas via booming (booming activities will be outlined under another plan), including guidance from NOAA on booming operations related to endangered species & EFH. c. Keep animals away from oil via hazing (if appropriate).

2) Mitigate outcomes to wildlife: a. Minimize impact to sensitive wildlife species that may become oiled or otherwise be harmed by the oil, e.g., by ingestion. b. Arrange for the capture and transport of oiled wildlife to wildlife rehabilitation centers. NOTE: No One other than Save All Birds, Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC), National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) or U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service (USFWS) should handle wildlife. All sightings should be called into the command center. Wildlife Branch (Planning Section) 813-872-3641. As an alternate contact after immediate spill effects (if above number is demobilized, contact FWC Wildlife Alert Hotline at 888-404-3922. c. Treat oiled wildlife to reduce the toxic effects of the oil and assist in the animals' recovery. d. Return recovered wildlife to their natural environment.

2.0 ORGANIZATION

Wildlife recovery and rehabilitation activities fall under the Agency Liaison and Environmental Unit in the Planning Section of the Incident Command Structure (ICS).

Save All Birds will be utilized for bird rehabilitation associated with this incident. FWC staff will be responsible for sea turtles and marine mammals.

3.0 ACTIVATION/NOTIFICATION

For this event, Save All Birds was notified on Nov. 6, 2014 and are currently mobilized at a temporary staging facility located at the Gandy Bridge Boat Ramp and ready to accept any wildlife needing rehabilitation.

4.0 ESTABLISHMENT OF REHABILITATION CENTERS A Wildlife Rehabilitation Center has been established the Gandy Bridge Boat Ramp. This facility will be equipped to:

366 Tampa Bay Area Contingency Plan – 2012 ______

• Receive and stabilize animals; • Wash, rinse and dry oiled wildlife; • Rehabilitate cleaned animals; and • Hold animals until they can be released to the wild or some other long-term permitted rehabilitation facility (see appendix in FL Wildlife Contingency Plan for contacts).

Documentation of rehabilitation operations will be conducted at the Wildlife Rehabilitation Center, including but not limited to, the following:

• Medical records for each specimen with 1. The date and time of arrival, 2. Condition upon arrival, 3. Date and time of cleaning, 4. Assessment of degree of oiling, • Day-to-day observations, and • Type and quantity of food consumed. • Day and Night security will be provided to secure area overnight and keep onlookers and media away during day.

5.0 THREATENED AND ENDANGERED SPECIES

Consultations have taken place with NOAA on Endangered Species and Essential Fish Habitat. Listed species identified 5 (4 marine turtles – loggerheard, kemp’s ridley, green, leatherback and smalltooth sawfish) in area. No critical habitat in response area.

6.0 PROTECTION TECHNIQUES

To protect wildlife resources from exposure to crude oil, wildlife protection operations may be utilized. The Wildlife Rescue Coordinator, FWC and USFWS will coordinate to implement tactical strategies for wildlife protection as needed.

Protections will include skimming and booming (plans developed by other sections) to keep oil away from wildlife. Additionally, hazing for birds may be conducted by FWC or USFWS staff only. Hazing will be limited to air horns (pyrotechnics will not be used due to risk of ignition). Observers on boat or plane can assess need for hazing and only FWC/USFWS staff can haze. Hazing is not effective for marine turtles or marine mammals.

7.0 RECOVERY OF WILDLIFE

Affected wildlife (living and deceased) will be collected and documented to provide complete, direct records of impacted wildlife.

367 Tampa Bay Area Contingency Plan – 2012 ______

No One other than Save All Birds, Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC), National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) or U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service (USFWS) should handle wildlife. All sightings should be called into the command center. Wildlife Branch (Planning Section) 813- 872-3641. Collected wildlife should be delivered to the Wildlife Rehabilitation Center immediately. Birds will be treated at the Wildlife Rehabilitation Center. Turtles will be handled by FWC, live turtles will be sent to list identified permitted rehabbers (FL Aquarium is local first option). Manatees will be handled by FWC, live rehab at Lowry Park Zoo or Sea World of FL

Request FWC/DEP wildlife observers on overflight within next operating period.

Get monitors for MacDill area (and notify MacDill that wildlife observers will be out there).

Request and deploy passive observation vessel (FWC will provide) with crew of wildlife observers to observe and collect oiled.

8.0 REHABILITATION OF WILDLIFE

The rehabilitation of oiled wildlife will be conducted by Save All Birds rehabilitators and veterinarians with experience in the treatment of birds exposed to oil. FWC staff will be responsible for sea turtles and marine mammals. Affected birds and animals recovered throughout spill response by trained FWC staff and shall be transported to one of the rehabilitation centers or other facilities as directed by FWC staff. DEP staff will advise when rehabilitated wildlife are ready for release. The ultimate goal of the rehabilitation effort is to return as many oil- impacted and rehabilitated animals as possible back into the wild with the expectation that everything has been done to maximize their survival and eventual reproductive success. USFWS and FWC will make recommendations for release locations.

9.0 STORAGE AND DISPOSAL OF DECEASED WILDLIFE

1) Animals are put into indefinite storage, coordinated with FWC, for future use by researchers and also as part of the evidence of spill impacts; and,

For Turtles: dead turtles will be salvaged and sent to UF/NOAA in Gainesville (Dr. Brian Stacey; 352-283-3370)

For Manatees: dead manatees will be salvaged by FWRI Manatee section staff (Andy Garrett; 727-893-2904)

2) Specimens are delivered to appropriate research and educational institutions for research and study. 3) All specimens will be accompanied by a Chain of Custody (COC) form.

368 Tampa Bay Area Contingency Plan – 2012 ______

In coordination with, and as directed by, the state and federal wildlife agencies, arrangements for necropsies will be made, and appropriate post-mortem examinations will be conducted and documented. The method of disposition will be determined by the state and federal wildlife agencies.

10.0 VOLUNTEER COORDINATION

Volunteers will likely be present to assist with wildlife impacts. Motiva will defer volunteer coordination to the regulatory agencies: federal, state or local.

11.0 SAFETY All air monitoring levels are within safe zones as of 11/6/14; 12:30; no respirators required.

Request FWC LE presence to patrol area to keep untrained public from attempting to capture oiled wildlife.

PURPOSE

This plan serves to identify general guidance procedures for decontamination of equipment and vessels that have become contaminated as part of the Old Port Tampa 2014 Drill response. This includes vessels that may have transited through hydrocarbon-impacted areas whether contaminated or suspected of being contaminated with oil, to confirm they are non-oiled or return them to a non-oiled state.

CONCEPT OVERVIEW

373 Tampa Bay Area Contingency Plan – 2012 ______The primary focus of the decontamination operation will be to expedite the cleanup of contaminated equipment and vessels in a safe, organized, and efficient manner which will minimize environmental impact, damage and waste generation. Team leaders on scene conducting decontamination operations will be responsible for the coordination of operations with the Incident Command Post. Vessels are required to undergo decontamination if sheen emanates from the hull or if oil is visibly attached.

SAFETY

All required Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) shall be utilized at all times during decontamination operations. In addition to the normal safe work practices used on scene, when using water jet washing systems, full face shields and eye protection should be used. HAZCOM procedures will be followed while handling any chemicals per the MSDS. The Incident Command’s Safety Officer will ensure that all site safety instructions are followed.

The Unified Command’s on-scene representative (a qualified USCG member with input from the Site Safety Officer) will make a final “go / no-go” decision to include but not limited to safety of the personnel on-scene, weather concerns, sea state (generally operations will not take place in seas greater than 3 feet) and effects on wildlife (dolphins, whales, birds, etc). 1

VESSEL-SPECIFIC SAFETY CONCERNS

In the event the vessel being decontaminated is not able to anchor and machinery is running the decontamination team leader shall use their discretion concerning the distance from the stern the crews can safely operate. The team leader shall contact the operations section chief to receive further guidance on a case by case basis.

STAGING AREA DECONTAMINATION LOCATIONS

Decontamination areas shall be established at each of the 3 staging areas identified below. Each staging area will be used for general equipment decontamination. The Gandy Boat Ramp will be used for decontamination of vessels in accordance with the Vessel Routing Plan.

• Gandy Bridge Boat Ramp • Picnic Island • Demond’s Landing

WORK AREA DECONTAMINATION ZONES AND STATIONS

Work areas will be divided into three zones:

1. Clean Zone (Cold Zone)

2. Contamination Reduction Zone (Warm Zone)

3. Contaminated Zone (Hot Zone)

These zones are to be demarcated at each work area by signs and/or barrier tape or other means. Decon is carried out in the Contamination Reduction Zone. Each time cleanup workers exit the Contaminated Zone they must go through the decontamination procedure.

Decon crews are available to assist in the procedure as needed. The crews must wear appropriate protective clothing. The decon crews are responsible for packaging and labeling of contaminated work clothing and other personal protective equipment (PPE) if not to be reused.

Within the Contamination Reduction Zone are a series of stations to carry out specific decon activities. The ground at each station is covered with heavy diked PVC sheets to prevent contamination of the soil. These stations and the procedures at each are as follows: 374 Tampa Bay Area Contingency Plan – 2012 ______

 STATION 1 - Deposit contaminated equipment (tools, containers, ect.). Use this station for cool down if needed.  STATION 2 - Wile workers stand in shallow plastic tubs, remove tape, if worn, from gloves and boots. Scrub boots, outer gloves and protective clothing with decon solution (detergent in water). Rinse with water from handheld sprayers as workers step from tubs.  STATION 3 - Remove boots and outer gloves. Deposit in designated containers.  STATION 4 - Remove protective clothing and deposit in designated contianers. Remove inner gloves and deposit in designated containers.  STATION 5 - Wash hands and face with mild soap. Shower as soon as practical.

MONITORING, DOCUMENTATION AND REPORTING

The Unified Command’s on-scene representative should monitor for efficacy of cleaning, presence of marine species and/or birds in the operation area, and operational success of containment and recovery. The results of all monitoring elements should be documented by report using Enclosure B. That report and photos, if appropriate, should be submitted from the FOSC to the RRT-IV Co-Chairs and S&T committee upon conclusion of the cleaning activities within three working days.

VESSEL DECONTAMINATION PROCEDURES

Prior to exiting port, Deep Draft Commercial Vessels will undergo necessary decontamination screening procedures. 1. Deep Draft Commercial Vessels should submit a Vessel Self-Assessment Reporting Form (Page 5) to the Sector St. Petersburg Notice of Arrivals Desk (813-228-2189 ext 8140) no less than 24 hours prior to exiting Tampa Bay. Vessels that do not may encounter administrative delays in the processing of their entry control number. 2. Following the self-inspection, the vessel master or agent will determine if the designated “clean” standard (vessel no longer sheening) established by the Unified Command is exceeded. 3. If the vessel completes the self-examination and deems itself “clean”, further verification will be made by the Tampa Bay pilots Association. Pilots will conduct a brief sweep around the vessel to ensure the vessel does not pose a pollution risk to Tampa Bay. 4. If the vessel is deemed unclean by either the self-assessment or the pilot inspection an attempt will be made to decontaminate the vessel utilizing high volume saltwater from an offshore vessel platform fire monitor system. If unsuccessful a second method using a lift and float type product (Cytosol) will be mixed on-scene and used via the same method. A boom will be used along with absorbent pads to capture, to the maximum extent possible, all products of the decontamination process when feasible given weather, sea conditions, and safety factors. 5. Once a vessel is deemed “unclean”, either by the master or pilot, a report will be made to Tampa Bay’s CVTS and Sector St Petersburg’s Command Center. The Command Center will pass the information to the Ops Section Chief who will notify National Response Corporation (NRC), the contracted Oil Spill Response Organization (OSRO). 6. NRC will dispatch the necessary assets, along with a USCG representative to conduct the cleaning. The USCG representative on scene will determine when the vessel is “clean” and clear entry. 7. Upon completion of decontamination, NRC’s team will allow final inspection by vessel representatives and the on-site verifying USCG representative. This does not preclude representatives from monitoring the cleaning of the vessel as it occurs. 8. A fixed or portable fire monitor will systematically clean contaminated surfaces of the vessel using water and dispersant. 9. Any solid oil on the hull will be pressure washed and recovered by response personnel using 375 Tampa Bay Area Contingency Plan – 2012 ______sorbent material and nets. 10. Where permissible, decontamination will be completed on all solid surfaces by jet washing. Non permissible areas are locations where safety could potentially be endangered, such as the stern of the vessel while engaged, or if environmental conditions exist that do not allow for safe operations. 11. Decon team leaders, safety observer, the USCG verifying representative, or any other involved parties are required to report any of the above conditions, or others, that do not allow for safe operations. Once unsafe operations are reported to a Site Safety Officer, cleaning operations shall be suspended until conditions change, or if alternate operations are approved by the Unified Command.

SURFACE WASHING AGENTS

The only surface washing agent approved for vessel decontamination per this plan will be the lift and float agent Cytosol. It, along with water, will be the only washing agents used during offshore decontamination operations. All wash waters shall be contained and properly disposed in accordance with the Residual Management Disposal Plan. Extreme caution shall be used to avoid discharge of wastewaters to land or water.

DECONTAMINATION EQUIPMENT

General

The following will be used for general equipment decontamination:

• Shallow plastic tubs • Mild detergents • Long-handled, soft bristle scrub brushes • Benches or stools • Towels • Tables • Wash basins • Plastic drop cloths • Various size containers • Decon solution (detergent in water) • Hand-held pressure sprayer • Rinse water • Tool/equipment drop containers, trash cans, trash bags • Portable safety showers

Vessels

While conducting hull decontamination of marine vessels the following minimum equipment will be necessary: • Work boat (s) • Fixed or portable fire monitor • Cytosol • Cleaning personnel • Sorbent Boom and pads • Sorbent nets • Site Safety Officer • USCG representative who will determine when the vessel is clean and cleared for entry

9330 Disposal Plan

See Sample Plan

9330.1 Disposal Concerns

In dealing with oil spills, one of the main problems encountered is what to do with the waste materials once the cleanup has begun. When dealing with the method of disposal there are three main areas of concern, ecology, logistics and finance. What further effects are going to occur due to relocation of the waste material (Ideally, the goal is to dispose of the material without any further hazard generate or further impacts to the environment, including air, surface water, ground water, and soils. How can waste be safety moved from the site to the disposal and /or treatment area? What is the availability of the machinery needed for removal? What is the capacity of the disposal and/or treatment facility? How much is it going to cost to dispose of the waste. What are the possibilities of recycling the wastes into a useful product to help offset the disposal cost? Waste material generally fall into one of the following categories:

(1) Recovered liquids (oil/water mixtures)

385 Tampa Bay Area Contingency Plan – 2012 ______(2) Contaminated absorbents and debris

(3) Contaminated soils/sand Liquid waste is probably the easiest form of waste to deal with because it is easily handled, moved or sometimes can be processed into a useful product. Absorbents are the most widely used products for oil spill cleanup. Organic absorbents, mainly made of straw, are biodegradable. Many new absorbents are synthetic and their biodegradability is greatly reduced. The best absorbents would be one that could be reused, much like a sponge, leaving only liquid waste which is easily disposed of, thereby reducing cleanup costs and the amount of solid waste generated. Contaminated soils from beaches must be disposed of in accordance with Florida regulations.

9330.2 Potential Disposal Methods

9330.21 Recovered Liquid Waste Disposal in accordance with 40 C.F.R. 262.20-23 for RCRA wastes. a. Recycling (recovery in settling tanks, used oil Recyclers) b. High temperature incineration c. Evaporation of light ends d. Oxidation e. Biodegration f. Open burning where permitted g. Use as fuel

9330.22 Contaminated Sorbents and Debris Disposal in accordance with 40 C.F.R. 262.20-23 for RCRA wastes a. Incineration at waste-to-energy facilities b. Soil thermal treatment facilities (special conditions apply) c. Class I permitted municipal waste landfill

9330.23 Contaminated Soils Disposal in accordance with 40 C.F.R. 262.20-26 for RCRA wastes a. Soil thermal treatment facilities b. Incineration at waste-to-energy facilities

386 Tampa Bay Area Contingency Plan – 2012 ______9330.3 Waste Disposal Site Selection

Florida’s Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) is responsible for determining the eligibility of facilities to use general permits for soil thermal treatment and used oil recycling. FDEP also issues permits for landfilling, air pollutant emissions, hazardous waste treatment, storage, and disposal, and for the registration and/or certification of used oil transporters, collection facilities and recyclers. The FDEP Waste Management Division regulates the handling, storage, and testing of petroleum contaminated soil, solid waste, and hazardous waste. Oil spill wastes maybe disposed of at permitted facilities (federal, state and local) authorized by the EPA and FDEP. During federalized spills, it is the responsibility of the FOSC to ensure that waste resulting from a spill is handled properly. Information on these facilities and transporters can be obtained by contacting the Department of Environmental Protection, Emergency Response Coordinator at (813) 744-6462 in Tampa, FL.

The following is a list of permits/licenses, etc. that the FOSC should be aware of and their specific regulatory references found in Code of Federal Regulations and Florida Administrative Code (FAC).

387 Tampa Bay Area Contingency Plan – 2012 ______9330.4 Waste Characterization

The first step in determining which method(s) of disposal will be utilized is to characterize the waste and determine if it is subject to the requirements of the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA), 40 C.F.R. The spiller’s knowledge of the material and/or laboratory analysis, and the intended use of the recovered material must be used to determine if the material meets the criteria for hazardous waste set forth in 40 C.F.R 261.

9330.5 RCRA Regulated Waste.

If the material meets the criteria for RCRA regulated wastes, it can only be disposed of at an approved hazardous waste treatment/disposal facility. If the spill is not a hazardous waste listed in 40 C.F.R 261 Subpart D, but exhibits a characteristic of hazardous waste per 40 C.F.R 261 Subpart C, it is possible to treat the waste on site to render it non- hazardous prior to offsite disposal. The generator shall treat hazardous waste in tanks or containers only, provide a waste analysis plan to document treatment, and ensure compliance with 40 C.F.R 262.34 requirements while accumulating and treating the waste. This kind of treatment would include stabilization of soils with cement, neutralization and other simple forms of non-thermal treatment. Evaporation of organics and dilution are not permissible.

9330.6 Non-RCRA Regulated Wastes

Several options exist for disposal, treatment or recycling of wastes and recovered products that are not subject to RCRA requirements. Following is a brief summary of each option and recommended procedures.

9330.7 Used Oil Recyclers

Used oil recyclers can process recovered oil and oil/water mixtures into reusable products. Used oil transporters must be certified by FDEP in accordance with 17-710.600 FAC. Used oil recycle facilities must be registered with FDEP and approved to use the general permit for used oil recycling. For specific requirements, see Chapter 17-710, Florida Administration Code. Additional information on used oil recyclers can be obtained on the world wide web at: http://www.dep.state.fl.us

9330.8 Waste-to-Energy Incinerators

Waste-to-Energy (WTE) Incinerators produce energy from the incineration of municipal solid wastes. Depending on the nature of the material to be disposed of, WTE facilities maybe a viable option for disposal of oil debris and/or soils. WTE facilities must have an air permit and a power plant site certification from FDEP. For specific requirements, see Florida Statute 376, Part II and Chapters 17-710 and 17-210, Florida Administrative Code.

388 Tampa Bay Area Contingency Plan – 2012 ______9330.9 Soil Thermal Treatment Facilities (STFF’s)

Soil Thermal Treatment Facilities (STFFS’s) use heat to remove petroleum contaminants from soil, resulting in clean soil for various uses. STFF’s are an option for petroleum contaminated provided that the soils are not classified as a hazardous waste as defined in 40 C FR 261. STFF’s must have an FDEP air permit and be approved to use the general permit for soil thermal treatment. For specific requirements, see Chapters 17-775 and 17-210, Florida Administrative Code.

9330.10 Land Filling

Land filling of soil and debris which is non-hazardous and non-saturated in a lined Class I landfill in a acceptable disposal option. Landfills must be permitted by the FDEP. Decisions regarding acceptance of wastes are at the discretion of the landfill operator. Laboratory analysis of waste maybe required prior to acceptance. For specific requirements, see Chapter 17-701, Florida Administrative Code. In some cases, treatment of petroleum contaminated soil may include land farming. This process involves spreading the soil in a thin layer over an impermeable liner or surface. The contaminant reduction is caused by a combination of volatilization, biodegradation, and photodegradation.

9330.11 Communication Plan

Due to the concentration of coastal agencies and resources available within Sector St. Petersburg’s AOR, coordinating a communications network in an emergency situation should not be a problem if the Unified Command Comms Staff is utilized. The counties located within Sector St. Petersburg's AOR have most methods of communication. The development of a comms plan will identify all means being used for a response effort. Sector St. Petersburg has access to various intra-organizational CG communications resources. Rapid and accurate exchange of information is a very important tool in successfully mitigating pollution or hazardous material incident or a marine casualty situation. Each case will vary in complexity and require various levels of communication resources,

The majority of response efforts conducted within the AOR are handled by landline telephone. There will be situations however, where more elevated levels of communications are necessary to effectively resolve an ongoing problem. These situations may require the use of telefax, VHF- FM radios and computers to exchange information between Sector St. Petersburg and other Coast Guard units, as well as various agencies and contractors involved in the response. The Florida Division of Emergency Management in Tallahassee at (904) 488-1900 has two portable communications trailers available. When communicating with the boating public, the most effective means of communications is via marine band VHF- FM Channel 16, 13, 22A and 81A. Numerous other frequencies are used for special purposes; see list on page J-36. Most cases will occur at or near waterways, so those people most likely to be impacted first by a particular pollution spill are those who have access to the marine band.

9340 Water Intakes

There is only one drinking water intake pipe within Tampa Bay. It is a desalinization plant that is operated by Tampa Bay Water. The plant is located adjacent to the Big Bend Power Plant and draws the water from the power plants discharge canal. The desalinization plant is sensitive to changes in the water quality, therefore it is critical to notify the plant operator of any pollution event that could impact it’s operation. It is worth noting that the plant will shut down in the event of any possible damage might occur to its operation. This will not have a significant effect on the water supply to the Tampa area as the plant only produces 5-7% of drinking water. Tampa Bay Water plant contact number is 813-929-4550. The drinking water intakes of other plants are far enough up stream not to be threatened by the petroleum products that transit the COTP zone. The facilities in Table 22 have water intakes that take in millions of gallons of salt water a day.

9400 Area Planning Documentation

9410 Discharge and Release History

The largest spill which impacted or threatened to impact the shoreline or environment of the legacy MSO Tampa's zone occurred in September 1995 when approximately 4,200 gallons of #6 oil was spilled in the vicinity of Berths 201-211, Port of Tampa, Florida.

The U.S. Coast Guard received reports of approximately 32,000 oil/hazardous substance spills each calendar year. Over a four year period (2007-2010), 1,413 pollution cases were reported via the National Response Center to Sector St. Petersburg, of those 922 (65%) were mystery cases where no source was identified; the remainder were federal cleanups and violation cases. In the USCG Sector St. Petersburg AOR the information below applies primarily to oil discharges. In the Sector St. Petersburg zone an average of 5 small hazardous substance releases occur yearly.

Total Per Year:

Year Total Mystery Percent Cases Cases Mystery

2007 333 116 35% 2008 347 250 72% 2009 278 204 73% 2010 455 352 77%

The average spill in the COTP Tampa/St. Petersburg AOR is less than 10 gallons and is of gasoline or #2 diesel fuel with occasional number six oil discharges. The probable sources of these spills include:

(1) bilge pumping

(2) improper fueling operations

(3) sunken vessels

(4) ruptured transfer hoses

9410.1 Most Probable Discharge.

The most probable spill scenario requiring cleanup is a 25 to 75 gallon spill of marine fuel (MGO/#2 diesel) as waste oil or bilge residue in daylight hours in areas where commercial fleets dock.

9410.2 Maximum Most Probable Discharge.

The maximum most probable discharge is approximately 380,000 gallons of number 2 diesel, jet A fuel, gasoline and # 6 oil. However, due to the viscosity of the #6 oil and the duration of cleanup time including weather conditions, #6 is considered to be more environmentally dangerous.

396 Tampa Bay Area Contingency Plan – 2012 Revision ______9410.3 Worst Case Discharge.

When developing the scenario for the worst case discharge the Area Committee examined the potential for a spill by vessels and facilities. Because the situations are so different, but the potential amount can be virtually identical, the committee developed separate scenarios; one for a vessel and one for a facility.

Worst Case Discharge #1 (Vessel) The worst case vessel spill scenario is a collision in Tampa Bay (junction of Cut “A” and Cut “B” approximately two nautical miles East of the Sunshine Skyway Bridge) of a 250,000 barrel tanker/barge carrying #6 oil with another vessel, resulting in a rupture and total loss of cargo.

The weather considerations during the selected summer incident; typical July/August pattern with winds at 10-15 knots about 1400 hours. late afternoon (approximately1700-1800) storms form overland and move WNW with winds gusting to 35-45 knots; potential exists for waterspouts and tornadoes; storm passes and winds go back to light and variable from the ESE overnight; air temperatures drops 15-20 degrees and in less than one hour when the storms hit.

Worst Case Discharge #2 (Facility) The worst case/facility spill scenario is a catastrophic failure of a 250,000 barrel tank of #6 oil at Port Manatee, with 50,000 bbls escaping via mosquito ditch to the bay.

9420 Scenarios

The worst case/facility spill scenario is a catastrophic failure of a 250,000 barrel tank of #6 oil at Port Manatee, with 50,000 bbls escaping via mosquito ditch to the bay. When developing the scenario for the worst case discharge the committee examined the potential for a spill by both vessels and facilities. Because the situations are so different, but the potential amount can be virtually identical, the committee developed scenarios for the both a vessel and facility incident.

9420.1 Worst Case Scenario #1 (VESSEL)

The worst case vessel spill scenario is a collision 2 nautical miles NE of the Sunshine Skyway Bridge, at the intersection of Tampa Ship Channel Cut A and Cut B (posn. 27 37.50’ N, 082 36.50’ W). A 250,000 barrel tanker/barge carrying #6 oil collides with another vessel, resulting in a total loss of cargo (250,000 barrels).

9420.11 Assumptions

The collision occurs during heavy weather, on a holiday weekend, involving a foreign vessel, with no local contacts.

9420.12 Size of discharge - 250,000 barrels

9420.13 Historical spill considerations

General examples of vessel collisions in Tampa Bay have come from human factors and equipment/engine failures and include:

a. 1972 - The Greek tanker Nea Tihi collided with the freighter Insco Producer anchored in the fog off Egmont Key, partially in the channel. b. 1980 - USCGC BLACKTHORN collided with the oil tanker S.S. CAPRICORN under the Sunshine Skyway Bridge. c. 1980 - The Monrovia freighter SUMMIT VENTURE collided with the Sunshine 397 Tampa Bay Area Contingency Plan – 2012 Revision ______Skyway Bridge during a severe storm. d. 1990 - A tug and oil barge collided with the Sunshine Skyway Bridge when a hydraulic hose malfunctioned and steering was lost on the tug. e. 1992 - The Anhydrous Ammonia tanker LUIGI LAGRANGE collided with the freighter BLED in the fog at the anchorage off Egmont Key. f. 1993 - August 10th a three vessel collision between the freighter BALSA 37, tug and tank barge SEAFARER/OCEAN 255 and tug and tank barge CAPT FRED BOUCHARD/B-155 resulted in 330,000 gallons of #6 crude oil and 50,000 gallons of Jet A fuel being spilled in Tampa Bay.

9420.14 Hazard Assessment

Utilize MSDS information regarding toxicity, etc. of #6 oil, close air space by FAA - non- essential aircraft, persistent in environment, low evaporation rate there is a remote fire hazard, other vessel traffic in the immediate area, bridge may need to be closed to vehicular traffic potential stability problems for salvage operations.

9420.15 Vulnerability analysis

The greatest concentration of environmentally sensitive areas is in the southern portion of Tampa Bay. This area possesses mangroves, sea grass, recreational and commercial fishery, bird rookeries, marine mammals, shellfish, turtles, benthic community and aquatic preserves.

9420.16 Risk Assessment

A catastrophic spill at the junction of Cut “A” and Cut “B” would impact virtually all of Tampa Bay as well as the area between the Sunshine Skyway and Egmont Key. In the southern bay area, Port Manatee is considered to be the most probable spill site because of the large amount of vessel movement and bulk product storage. Port Manatee is located in one of the most environmentally sensitive areas of Tampa Bay, amid the Cockroach Bay Aquatic Preserve to the north and Bishop’s Harbor and Terra Ceia Aquatic Preserve to the south. As the spill spreads out on the tide(s) all resources noted above (9420.15) would be at risk, as well as the Gulf beaches and inland waters (e.g. Boca Ciega Bay).

9420.17 Seasonal considerations

Although fog poses a hazard in the winter months, the numerous and violent thunderstorms that occur during the summer are assumed to pose the greater hazard because of the suddenness with which they can materialize and the extreme conditions that exist during the storms.

9420.18 The Event

a. Situation. One inbound foreign vessel carrying 250,000 barrels of #6 oil collided with another vessel splitting open two cargo tanks on the inbound vessel.

b. Location. The junction of Cut “A” and Cut “B”, approximately2 nautical miles NE of the Sunshine Skyway Bridge. c. Type and amount of spill. 250,000 barrels of #6 oil. d. Can pollution source be secured? No e. Sensitive areas at risk. See 9420.15 above f. Time of the year. Summer g. On-scene weather. During the day, a typical July/August pattern exists with morning winds from the SE at 10-15 knots, moving westerly at 10-15 knots about 1400. Late 398 Tampa Bay Area Contingency Plan – 2012 Revision ______afternoon, approximately1700-1800, a storm forms over land and moves WNW with wind gusting 35-45 knots (potential exists for sudden gusts to top 60 knots). Potential exists for waterspouts and tornadoes storm passes and the winds go back to light and variable from the ESE overnight, air temperature drops 15-20 degrees in less than an hour when the storm hits.

9420.2 Worst Case Scenario #2 (FACILITY)

The worst, case facility spill scenario is a catastrophic failure of a 250,000 Barrel tank of #6 oil at Port Manatee.

9420.21 Size of discharge - 250,000 Barrels

9420.22 Historical spill considerations

None

9420.23 Hazard Assessment

Utilize MSDS information regarding toxicity, etc. of #6 oil persistent in environment, low evaporation rate, remote fire hazard, personnel exposure hazard as product is heated.

9420.24 Vulnerability analysis

Mangroves, sea grass, recreational and commercial fisheries, bird rookeries, marine mammals, shellfish, benthic community, and aquatic preserves, personnel at facility.

9420.25 Risk Assessment

A catastrophic spill at Port Manatee would impact virtually all of Tampa Bay, as the tide dispersed the oil all the resources noted in 9420.24 would be at risk, as well as the Gulf beaches. In the southern bay area, Port Manatee is considered to be the most probable spill site because of the large amount of vessel amount of vessel movement and bulk product storage. Port Manatee is located in one of the most environmentally sensitive areas of Tampa Bay, amid the Cockroach Bay Aquatic Preserve to the north and Bishop’s Harbor and Terra Ceia Aquatic Preserve to the south.

9420.26 Seasonal considerations

Tide/current effects are assumed to be worse in the spring (reference Coast Pilot Tampa Bay weather section). The worst time of year for a spill in this area is the winter because of low water levels, exceptionally strong currents, strong northeast winds and inaccurate tide projections. Although fog poses a hazard in the winter months, the numerous and violent thunderstorms that occur during the summer are assumed to pose a greater hazard because of the suddenness with which they can materialize and the extreme conditions that exist during the storms.

9420.27 The Event a. Situation. A total structural failure of a storage tank, product breaches the berm and enters Tampa Bay via a mosquito ditch adjacent to the bermed area. The potential exists for the majority of the product to leave the bermed area. b. Location. Port Manatee. c. Type and amount of spill. 250,000 barrels of #6 oil, 50,000 barrels escape into Tampa Bay before mosquito control ditch is closed off.

399 Tampa Bay Area Contingency Plan – 2012 Revision ______d. Can pollution source be secured? No, however earthmoving equipment will be mobilized to dam up the mosquito control ditch to lessen the quantity of oil entering Tampa Bay. e. Sensitive areas at risk. Bishop’s Harbor, Cockroach Bay Aquatic Preserve, Pinellas and Manatee beaches, Pinellas County Aquatic Preserve, Terra Ceia Aquatic Preserve, Tierra Verde/Ft. DeSoto, southeast St. Petersburg. Within the first ½ hour an exposure problem will exist because the product is heated (reference MSDS), the entire area will be shut down. f. Time of the year. Summer g. On-scene weather. During the day a typical July/August pattern exists with morning winds from the SE at 10-15 knots, moving westerly at 10-15 knots around 1400. In the late afternoon (approximately1700-1800) storms form over land and move WNW with winds gusting 35-45 knots. There is a strong potential for sudden gusts to top 60 knots in addition to waterspouts and tornadoes. Once the storm passes, the winds go back to light and variable from the ESE. The overnight air temperature drops 15-20 degrees in less than an hour when the storm hits. This creates adverse weather and greater potential for tornadoes.

9420.3 Worst Case Scenario #3 (OFFSHORE PLATFORM)

The worst case offshore platform spill scenario is a catastrophic failure of the rig and an uncontrolled spill of product in the Gulf of Mexico.

9420.31 Size of discharge - Uncontrolled discharge of 75,000 barrels/day for at least 30 days

9420.32 Historical spill considerations

Deepwater Horizon / MC 252

9420.33 Hazard Assessment

Utilize Material Safety Data Sheet Information (MSDS) for “Mayan” crude oil will be used. During the initial days of the incident when the oil is burning, the hazards are greatly increased due to the inherent risks of working around burning oil and the possibility of respiratory problems developing. Air monitoring on-site and at various downwind locations must be conducted. This information should be used to assist in the development of the site safety plan.

9420.34 Vulnerability analysis

Mangroves, sea grass, recreational and commercial fisheries, bird rookeries, marine mammals, shellfish, benthic community, and aquatic preserves, personnel at facility.

9420.35 Risk Assessment

A catastrophic spill offshore could impact virtually all of Sector St Petersburg’s area of operations, as the tide and current dispersed the oil all the resources noted in 9420.34 would be at risk, as well as the Gulf beaches.

9420.36 Seasonal considerations

The most severe weather threat is experienced from June through November, the traditional hurricane season, but on average, the winds and seas are strongest during the late fall and winter months of October through March. Although fog poses a hazard in the winter months, the numerous and violent thunderstorms that occur during the summer are assumed to pose a greater hazard because of the suddenness with which they can materialize and the extreme conditions that exist during the storms. 400 Tampa Bay Area Contingency Plan – 2012 Revision ______

9420.37 The Event a. Situation. A total failure of an offshore platform resulting in an uncontrolled release of product from the rig or well head. The surface oil potentially impacts coastal beaches and mangroves of the entire Sector St. Petersburg’s area of operation. b. Location. Gulf of Mexico. c..Type and amount of spill. Mayan crude or similar crude oil, 75,000 barrels/day for at least 30 days. d. Can pollution source be secured? No. e. Sensitive areas at risk.

On-scene weather. Various weather patterns as the scenario is not specific enough to pinpoint a single location of the spill source.

9420.4 Worst Most Probable Spill/Scenario # 4

After examining the spill history over the past 10 years the Area Committee determined the maximum most probable discharge to be approximately 6,000 gallons. This amount was expanded to 10,000 gallons in order to conform to the state of Florida’s 10,000 gallon contingency guidelines.

9420.41 Size of the discharge - 6-10,000 gallons

9420.42 Historical spill considerations.

JUN 91 - 6,000 gal #6 oil spill, Port Manatee.

9420.43 Hazard Assessment

Utilize MSDS information regarding toxicity, etc. of #6 oil, persistent in environment, low evaporation rate, there is a remote fire hazard, other vessel traffic in the immediate area and the workers at facility.

9420.44 Vulnerability analysis

Greatest concentration of environmentally sensitive areas is in the southern portion of Tampa Bay consisting of mangroves, sea grasses, recreational and commercial fisheries, bird rookeries, marine mammals, shellfish, benthic community, aquatic preserves within the environmentally sensitive area, and the Gulf beaches, and the crew of both the ships.

9420.45 Risk Assessment

In the southern bay area, Port Manatee is considered to be the most probable spill site because of the large amount of vessel movement and bulk product storage. Port Manatee is located in one of the most environmentally sensitive areas of Tampa Bay, amid the Cockroach Bay Aquatic Preserve to the north and Bishop’s Harbor and Terra Ceia Aquatic Preserve to the south.

9420.46 Seasonal considerations

Worst time of year for a spill in this area is the winter because of low water levels,

401 Tampa Bay Area Contingency Plan – 2012 Revision ______exceptionally strong currents, strong northeast winds and inaccurate tide projections (unless utilizing PORTS).

9420.47 The Event a. Situation.

Time of year. Winter. g. On-scene weather. Winds N to NE at 20 knots, temperature 45 degrees Fahrenheit, 4 tides.

9420.5 Most Probable Spill/Scenario #5

The most probable spill scenario is a 25-75 gallon spill of marine gas oil (MGO/#2 diesel) as waste oil/bilge residue, in daylight hours in the area where the commercial fleet docks. The USCG Sector St. Petersburg has a high incidence of reports for the Gulf of Mexico. For the purposes of preparedness in this area the location of the scenario is Tarpon Springs, when there is a large concentration of commercial fishing vessel fleets.

9420.51 Size of the Discharge - 25-75 Gallons

9420.52 Historical spill considerations

Tarpon Springs (Anclote River), bilge pumping.

9420.53 Hazard assessment

Utilize MSDS regarding toxicity.

9420.54 Vulnerability analysis

Adjacent Juncus and Spartina marshes, mangrove, feeding/roosting areas for wading and diving birds, oyster beds, marine mammals (West Indian manatees, dolphins).

9420.55 Risk assessment

Train Derailment/Scenario #6

9420.61 Hazard assessment Determination of the Hazardous Products Products Involved: chlorine, ammonium nitrate, anhydrous ammonia, hydrogen sulfide, malathion, hydrogen peroxide.

AMMONIA, anhydrous CAS number(s): 7664-41-1 UNNA number: 1005

General Description Anhydrous ammonia is a colorless to milky white liquid when stored and shipped as a compressed liquefied gas. When released on land, the liquid will boil (rapidly vaporize) producing large amounts of a colorless gas that is lighter than air. When released in water, the ammonia cold liquid will float and boil when initially released. The majority of the spilled liquid ammonia will go into solution with the receiving water, but a portion will also be lost as a gas. When released from a tank under pressure, the cold ammonia gas will freeze water droplet in the air, causing what looks as a white puff. The cold dense gas will initially be heavier than air. The gas has a sharp irritating odor at low concentrations. In liquid form, it is infinitely soluble in water, but will float and boil when initially released.

Refrigerated ammonia at –26 deg F. Not at much pressure as relief valve is set at 3 psi.

Physical and Chemical Properties Vapor Density= 0.771 g/L @ 0˚ C (lighter than air, but behaves as heavy gas when released as liquid ammonia)

Vapor Pressure= 8.5 atmospheres Water Solubility= 34% (highly soluble) Molecular Wt.= 17.0 amu Boiling Point= -28˚ F Freezing Point= -108˚ F

Flammability and Reactivity Properties Auto ignition Temperature= 1204˚ F Lower Explosive Limit= 15% 403 Tampa Bay Area Contingency Plan – 2012 Revision ______Upper Explosive limit= 28% Strong oxidizer that reacts with the following compounds: Acids Halogens Salts of silver, zinc, and mercury Corrosive to copper and galvanized surfaces

Fire Hazard Ammonia is a combustible gas, although it is difficult to ignite. It is often considered nonflammable and is labeled by DOT as a nonflammable gas. Mixtures of ammonia and air will explode under favorable conditions, such as in a fire where another fuel source is present and burning. Ammonia has a narrow explosion and flammability range (LEL 16% and UEL 25%, LFL 15.5 and UFL 27%). Combustion by-products include nitrogen oxides.

Health and Safety: Contact with liquid ammonia can cause frostbite; therefore, direct physical contact should be avoided. Ammonia is a strong irritant, which can cause severe damage to the respiratory tract, including death by edema. At concentrations near 5000 ppm, even short periods (a few minutes) of exposure to ammonia may be almost immediately fatal due to serious edema, strangulation, and asphyxiation. The table below1 provides a brief description of human health effect at different exposures to ammonia.

405 Tampa Bay Area Contingency Plan – 2012 Revision ______For 4 hours: Nitrile

Sampling Real-time air sampling for ammonia may be done by colorimetric tubes (Drager or similar) and by hand-held instruments utilizing electro-chemical sensors (e.g. GasTech Genesis, and others)

CHLORINE CAS number(s): 7782-50-5 UNNA number(s): 1017

General description Chlorine is a greenish yellow gas with a strong, pungent odor. Its boiling point is -29 ˚F (it is gas at room temperature) and it is 2.5 times heavier than air. Chlorine is slightly water soluble, 0.7% at 25 °C (77 °F) and is considered to be a non-flammable, non-combustible gas. Chlorine, however, is a strong oxidizer and will support combustion of other materials.

Special concern Chlorine is heavier than air and in conditions of low air turbulence tend to settle at low places. This point should be remembered before entry into confined space and when sampling for chlorine. Chlorine containers may rupture violently due to over pressurization under heat, releasing massive amount of chlorine gas. Chlorine is not combustible but would support combustion (it is a potent oxidizer). Combustion of other materials with chlorine is likely to generate toxic gases.

Physical and Chemical properties Vapor density=3.21 g/L (air=1.29) Water solubility=0.64 g Cl2/100g water

Flammability and Reactivity Properties Noncombustible, but supports combustion (strong oxidizer). Chlorine is very reactive. It will form explosive mixtures with hydrogen, acetylene, ammonia, fuel gas, and powdered metals. It will combine with water to form the potent and corrosive hydrochloric acid.

Health and Safety Chlorine gas is a strong irritant, and may cause severe damage to the eyes and respiratory system. The main symptoms are burning and teary eyes, coughing, choking, dizziness and burning sensation of the respiratory tract. Onset of breathing difficulty may be immediate or delayed. Exposure may cause pneumonia, tracheobronchitis, and pulmonary edema. Note: Onset of pulmonary edema may be delayed, and may occur even after exposure to relatively low concentrations of chlorine. Medical attention must be given to any person exposed. High concentration of chlorine may cause skin burning, inflammation, blister formation and death.

Exposure Standards TLV: 8 hr TWA-0.5 ppm, 15 min STEL-1.5 ppm PEL: 8 hr TWA-0.5 ppm, STEL-1 ppm IDLH: 30 ppm ERPGs: ERPG-1: 1 ppm, ERPG-2: 3 ppm, ERPG-3: 20 ppm

Odor Threshold 0.02-3.5 ppm

Personal Protection Respiratory recommendations: 406 Tampa Bay Area Contingency Plan – 2012 Revision ______Unknown concentration: Use SCBA, in continuous flow, pressure demand mode. 0.5-5 ppm: Minimum protection required: Full Face Air Purifying Respirator (APR) with appropriate chlorine cartridges. 5-12.5 ppm: Minimum protection: Powered, Positive Pressure Full Face APR, with chlorine cartridges 12.5 ppm and above: SCBA or line supplied air with emergency pack, in continuous flow/pressure demand mode.

Escape: Emergency air pack

Note: In a spill situation, it is practically impossible to determine if chlorine concentration is "5 ppm" or "12.5 ppm". Respiratory protection should be selected conservatively, with people's safety being the utmost concern. Selection of a higher step of protection is recommended if the concentration is not known, or conditions are such that it may exceed what is currently measured.

Clothing: Avoid skin contact. Use Butyl rubber, Neoprene, or PVC suits.

Eye protection: Avoid any possibility of contact with eyes. Chlorine is an eye irritant. Make sure that eye wash is available.

First Aid The best treatment is prevention. If at all possible, avoid exposure to chlorine. Stay upwind from it, evacuate people in the path of the plume (if concentrations justify it) and if need to, abandon the vessel and maneuver upwind and away from the source.

If exposure occurred: Move to fresh air, support breathing, and flush eyes and skin with copious amount of water. Get medical attention ASAP.

Sampling Two methods are commonly used to get quick, real-time air samples for chlorine 1. Colorimetric tubes. Colorimetric tubes (e.g. Drager, Sensidyne) can readily indicate the air concentration of chlorine, from a fraction of a ppm to hundreds of ppm. They are not very accurate (± 30%) but are simple, readily available and easy to use.

2. Electronic gas monitors. Have either a cell or chip that detect chlorine in the air. Most display the concentrations digitally, and sound an alarm if a predetermined level of concern is exceeded. These monitors are simple to use, portable and small (the size of a pocket book), and provide immediate readings.

Other Considerations Because of chlorine's high toxicity, measures to protect the public should be considered and implemented if public exposure risk to chlorine exists.

Chlorine is heavier than air and tends to "hug the ground" as it disperses. Therefore its downwind concentration would not decrease as rapidly as a gas that is lighter than air. Chlorine remaining in the vessel will tend to sink to lower areas. Entry into rooms or cargo holds should be done with caution. Sample for chlorine and anticipate higher concentrations of chlorine near the floor

The emergency valves on chlorine cylinders may be unseated and chlorine released when the cylinders are exposed to heat from fire. Such release occurred during the Yardarm Knot fire a few years ago.

407 Tampa Bay Area Contingency Plan – 2012 Revision ______Chlorine is very toxic, especially to the respiratory system. Onset of some symptoms, such as pulmonary edema, may be delayed. All people exposed to chlorine should receive medical attention.

HYDROGEN SULFIDE (H2S) CAS number(s): 7783-06-4 UNNA number(s): 1053

General Description Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is an extremely hazardous gas, capable of causing respiratory arrest and death at concentration of only several hundred part per million (ppm). Entry into confined spaces containing hydrogen sulfide released from decaying organic material has been the cause of many fatalities, recorded as far back as the Paris sewage system workers during the French revolution.

Physical and Chemical Properties Vapor density=1.189(air=1.0) Vapor Pressure=18.75x105Pa Freezing Point=-83.8C Boiling Point=-60.2C Water Solubility=slowly forms elemental sulfur

Flammability and Reactivity Properties Auto ignition Temperature= 260 Lower Explosive Limit= 4.3% Upper Explosive limit= 46%

HYDROGEN SULFIDE reacts as an acid and as a reducing agent explodes on contact with oxygen. Difluoride, bromine pentafluoride, chlorine trifluoride, dichlorine oxide, silver fulminate may ignite and explode when exposed to powdered copper in oxygen [Mertz, V. et al., Ber., 1880, 13, p. 722]. May react similarly with other powdered metals. Ignites on contact with metal oxides and peroxides (barium peroxide, chromium trioxide, copper oxide, lead dioxide, manganese dioxide, nickel oxide, silver oxide, silver dioxide, thallium trioxide, sodium peroxide, mercury oxide, calcium oxide) [Mellor, 1947, vol. 10, p. 129, 141]. Ignites with silver bromate, lead (II) hypochlorite, copper chromate, nitric acid, lead(IV) oxide and rust. May ignite if passed through rusty iron pipes [Mee, A. J., School Sci. Rev., 1940, 22(85), p. 95]. Reacts exothermically with bases. The heat of the reaction with soda lime, sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, barium hydroxide may lead to ignition or explosion of the unreacted portion in the presence of air / oxygen [Mellor, 1947, vol. 10, p. 140].

Fire Hazard Hydrogen sulfide is a toxic and highly flammable gas that forms explosive mixtures with air at a very wide concentration range.

Health and Safety The National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) reported that hydrogen sulfide was one of the primary occupational causes of unexpected death (NIOSH, 1977). Death from hydrogen sulfide usually occurred in relatively confined spaces, where the gas may accumulate to hazardous concentrations.

Hydrogen sulfide is a clear, foul smelling gas. Its odor resembles the smell of rotten eggs. Although the smell may be detected as low as 0.5 part per billion, it is not a good warning property because exposure to dangerous concentrations (100 ppm and above) may deaden the sense of smell, causing olfactory fatigue. Hydrogen sulfide is found in certain crude oils 408 Tampa Bay Area Contingency Plan – 2012 Revision ______("sour" crude), may be emitted from oil wells, and is generated by decaying organic materials, such as unrefrigerated fish cargo.

Hydrogen sulfide is toxic and irritating even at low concentrations, especially to people already suffering from asthma or other respiratory problems. At concentrations of several ppm, hydrogen sulfide may irritate the eyes and respiratory system. At higher concentrations it may cause pulmonary edema. Hydrogen sulfide is a chemical asphyxiant, causing respiratory arrest by affecting the parts of the brain that regulate respiration. Other symptoms of exposure to hydrogen sulfide include headaches, dizziness, staggering gait, diarrhea, fatigue, and insomnia. Hydrogen sulfide is a central nervous system depressant.

In addition to its toxic effects, hydrogen sulfide is a flammable gas. When burning it oxidizes to sulfur dioxide, which is also quite toxic.

Exposure Limits OSHA TWA (8 hours): 10 ppm OSHA STEL (15 minutes): 15 ppm IDLH: 100 ppm ERPGs: ERPG-1: 0.1 ppm, ERPG-2: 30 ppm, ERPG-3: 100ppm

The odor detection range for hydrogen sulfide is 0.5 ppb to 0.1 ppm

Personal Protection

If possible, avoid areas above exposure limits. Monitor hydrogen sulfide concentrations using electronic air sampling instruments or colorimetric tubes (e.g., Drager, Sensidyne). When entry is needed into a confined space suspected of containing hydrogen sulfide, follow OSHA or US Coast Guard confined space requirements and procedures. For concentrations above exposure limits, a full face respirator with positive pressure supplied air or self-contained breathing apparatus should be used. For very high concentrations in confined spaces, monitor for explosive atmospheres.

First aid for exposures includes water irrigation of eyes, and support respiration as needed. Any suspected overexposure to hydrogen sulfide should be given medical attention immediately.

Security issues: Perimeter control. Highway, water and air. Crime scene integrity.

Health & safety issues: Electrocution hazards on rail bridge, fall hazards, drowning, traffic, inhalation, heat stress.

Initial survey actions and observations: Level A recommended. Source sampling, count train personnel for SAR, survey cargo types and quantities, manifests, read rail cars. Setup perimeter.

MALATHION (C10H19O6PS2) CAS number(s): 121-75-5 UNNA number(s): 3018

General Description Malathion is a yellow to dark brown liquid with a garlic like odor. Its molecular weight is 330 Malathion belongs to the large family or organophosphate insecticides. It is used to control insects in a wide range of crops, including cotton, apples, potatoes, rice and vegetables. Malathion has also been used to control the Mediterranean fruit fly. Physical and Chemical Properties Density =1.25, it sinks in water Vapor Pressure=0.00004 mm Hg at room temperature, which makes it a low inhalation hazard in open air Water Solubility=: 0.02%, but is miscible in ether, acetone, and ethanol, hydrolyzes at pH <5.0 and > 7.0.

Flammability and Reactivity Properties Not readily flammable Organo thiophosphate. MALATHION is a yellow to brown liquid that solidifies at 2.9° C, moderately toxic. Organic phosphate insecticide, acts as an inhibitor of cholinesterase. When heated to decomposition it emits toxic fumes of oxides of sulfur and phosphorus [Lewis, 3rd ed., 1993, p. 789]

Fire Hazard During fire will produce toxic oxides of sulfur and phosphorus.

Health and Safety: Malathion is not very toxic to human. The lethal dose in mammals is about 1 g/kg of body weight, and large exposures are required to cause symptoms. Nearly all reported fatalities from malathion have been through ingestion.

Inhalation Inhalation of malathion may cause a number of symptoms, including tightness of the chest, wheezing, a bluish discoloration of the skin, small pupils, aching in and behind the eyes, blurring of the vision, tearing, runny nose, headache, and watering of the mouth.

Ingestion Ingestion of malathion may cause nausea, vomiting, abdominal cramps and diarrhea. High doses cause respiratory distress and possibly death.

Skin and eye irritation After skin absorption, sweating and twitching in the area of absorption may occur, usually within 15 minutes to four hours. Malathion is an eye irritant.

Exposure Guidelines TLV: 1 mg/m3 NIOSH: 10 mg/m3 TEELs: TEEL-1: 30 mg/m3, TEEL-2: 250 mg/m3, TEEL-3: 250 mg/m3 Are very similar to ERPGs except theoretically derived

Personal Protection 410 Tampa Bay Area Contingency Plan – 2012 Revision ______Malathion is absorbed readily through the skin. Skin and eye protection should be used when handling malathion.

When conducting cleanup and recovery operations of malathion spill (and for that matter, any chemical spill), the goal should be to protect the worker to the degree required and justified, without encumbering the workers with levels of protections they do not need. There is a hazard in donning level A or B such as increase risk for heat stress, trip and fall hazard, and injury due to reduced visibility by the workers.

The level of protection should be determine based on the nature of the hazardous substance, and the risk of inhalation, eye, and skin contact. On first entry there is justification to donning high level of protection if the environment is unfamiliar. OSHA requires that air samples be taken to justify respiratory selection (29.CFR.1910.134). After air samples were taken and the hazard ascertained, level of protection should be set according to the level of malathion in air.

According to NIOSH (http://www.cdc.gov/niosh/npg/npgd0375.html) workers may use a chemical cartridge respirator with organic vapor cartridge(s) in combination with a dust, mist, and fume filter when the concentrations of malathion are less than 100 milligrams per meter cube of air. Considering the low vapor pressure of malathion, it is not likely that the concentrations of this chemical in the conditions described should exceed this level.

AMMONIUM NITRATE (NH4NO3) CAS number(s): 6484-52-2 UNNA number(s): 1942

General Description A colorless crystalline solid. Soluble in water. Does not readily burn but will do so if contaminated with combustible material. Accelerates the burning of combustible material. Produces toxic oxides of nitrogen during combustion. Used to make fertilizers and explosives, and as a nutrient in producing antibiotics and yeast.

Physical and Chemical Properties Density=1.73 pH of 0.1M solution = 5.43

Flammability and Reactivity Properties Nonflammable in pure form, however becomes explosive by the addition of less than 1% by weight of organic material. Fuel oil is used to combine to make commercial explosive.

The hazards of AMMONIUM NITRATE have been well studied because of several extremely severe explosions. Mixtures with alkyl esters may explode, owing to the formation of alkyl nitrates. Mixtures with phosphorus, tin (II) chloride or other reducing agents may react explosively. A mixture with aluminum powder (also zinc, cadmium, copper, magnesium, lead, cobalt, nickel, bismuth, chromium, and antimony) can be used as an explosive. A number of explosions in which ammonium nitrate and aluminum were mixed with carbon or hydrocarbons, with or without oxidizing agents have occurred. A mixture with acetic acid ignites when warmed, especially if concentrated causes the decomposition of sodium hypochlorite within a few seconds.

Fire Hazard Dangerous explosion hazard, extremely effective oxidizing agent.

HYDROGEN PEROXIDE (H2O2) CAS number(s): 7722-84-1 UNNA number(s): 2015

411 Tampa Bay Area Contingency Plan – 2012 Revision ______General Description A colorless liquid. Vapors may irritate the eyes and mucous membranes. Under prolonged exposure to fire or heat containers may violently rupture due to decomposition. Used to bleach textiles and wood pulp, in chemical manufacturing and food processing.

Flammability and Reactivity Hazard Nonflammable, however, supports combustion of other materials.

HYDROGEN PEROXIDE, AQUEOUS SOLUTION, STABILIZED, WITH MORE THAN 60% HYDROGEN PEROXIDE is a powerful oxidizing agent. Will react or decompose violently and exothermically with readily oxidizable materials or alkaline substances. May decompose violently in contact with iron, copper, chromium, and most other metals or their salts, which act as catalysts for this reaction, and with ordinary dust (which frequently contain rust, also a catalyst for this reaction). Stabilization operates against such reactions, but does not eliminate their possibility. Contact with combustible materials may result in their spontaneous ignition. Solutions containing over 30% hydrogen peroxide can detonate when mixed with organic solvents (such as acetone, ethanol, glycerol); the violence of the explosion increases with increasing concentration of the hydrogen peroxide. Concentration of solutions of hydrogen peroxide under vacuum led to violent explosions when the concentration was sufficiently high (>90%). Mixtures of aqueous hydrogen peroxide with 1-phenyl-2-methyl propyl alcohol tend to explode if acidified with 70% sulfuric acid. Hydrogen selenide and hydrogen peroxide undergo a very rapid reaction

9420.62 Vulnerability analysis Long term health effects. Water quality, wildlife, economic and industrial effects. Public reaction. Recreation use must be stopped. Response and cleanup recommendations: Manatee corrals or diversion of animals away from area. Wildlife hazing. Dilution (propwash and water cannons), neutralization of chemicals with lime or other agent. Get permissions and permits to use neutralizers in environment. Removal of bulk chemicals. Booms and curtains (for window dressing).

End Points: Cars out of water, chemicals neutralized. Transportation routes opened.

9420.63 Risk assessment The primary concern is human health hazard and safety both at the derailment site and the surrounding population for potential air hazard. Because there are several chemicals involved, and their nearness to water brings up questions of chemical reactivity. Will the chemicals mentioned react with one another to form hazardous products and do any of the chemicals involved have water reactivity issues? The answers to these questions may alter the way the response proceeds. Since the chemicals are entering the river there is always concerns for contamination of potable water. The pesticide, malathion, poses particular concerns for ecological resources at risk, as do other chemicals involved in the incident.

Of the six chemicals involved in this scenario, three (ammonia, chlorine, and hydrogen sulfide) will be air hazards and the other three malathion, ammonium nitrate, and hydrogen peroxide could be mixed together during the derailment incident. Malathion, the organothio phosphate is likely to be oxidized especially in the presence of hydrogen peroxide. Although toxic gases are likely to be produced as a result of this inadvertent mixing of the two chemicals, it is not likely to be of more concern than the release of the gases before mentioned. Sulfur dioxide is one likely product and has levels of concern similar to hydrogen sulfide. Quantities of gas produced would depend on the degree of material that was mixed and the energy of mixing. Most of the malathion spilled into water will hydrolyze and form water soluble products such as alcohols, organic acids, phosphoric acid, thiophosphoric acid and others. The rate of this 412 Tampa Bay Area Contingency Plan – 2012 Revision ______hydrolysis process is pH dependent, in the presence of either acid or base accelerates the hydrolysis reaction. All products will have a murted pH effect due to buffering capacity of the salt water environment.

9420.64 The Event

On July 17, 2004 at 2200 local time, a train derailment with multiple hazmat cars go over a bridge at Hwy 41 into the Alafia River. The CSX manifest shows that there are several chemical tanker cars involved in the derailment incident. The chemicals include chlorine, ammonium nitrate, anhydrous ammonia, hydrogen sulfide, malathion, hydrogen peroxide. There are many potential human and environmental impacts to consider during this incident. On-scene Weather: July 17, 2004. Hot humid 2200 hours

9420.7 Biological Agent/Scenario #7

9420.71 Event

A cruise ship has just come into Tampa Port after a week long Caribbean cruise. Two troubling things have happened. One, a package containing a white powder has been found next to a ventilation intake. Two, over the last several days approximately 100 people aboard have begun suffering from cold-like symptoms and fever. These symptoms instead of moderating are increasingly severe and in some cases becoming serious.

9420.72 Hazard Assessment

Probably the most important response issue in the face of an unknown biological incident is to make all proper notifications starting with CDC Centers for Disease Control: 404 498-0120 emergency hotline

Other agencies include Florida Department of Health, etc.

Biological detection systems that specifically identify an agent are not available at this time, however, screening “white powders” is possible and does provide the response community valuable information. Greater than 80% of “white powder” incidents are inorganic salts and are therefore, of little concern. The screening system that has had a great deal of success is a system produced by 2020 Gene Systems, that identify the white powder as a biological agent or not. If determined to be a biological (a protein material) the substance could be any number of harmless materials such as yeast to harmful agents ranging from ricin to anthrax or various biological disease agents.

The findings of the initial screen when related to the CDC and medical community allows the medical community to prepare for a biological emergency before proper sampling and culture can identify the specific agent which may take many hours to complete.

The decisions to quarantine, administer anecdotes if available, and other decisions can begin to be made. Advice from the CDC and local health officials may be critical. In this scenario the extent of the possible contamination is limited to possibly all passengers aboard the cruise liner and therefore, somewhat more under control.

9420.73 Risk Assessment

413 Tampa Bay Area Contingency Plan – 2012 Revision ______The primary concern is human health hazard associated with the possible intentional introduction of a chemical/biological agent in the ventilation system where hundreds of passengers may be exposed.

9420.8 Radiological Agent/Scenario # 8

9420.81 Event While conducting a Positive Control boarding on a container vessel at the Fairway anchorage north of buoy #1 outside Egmont Key (12-14 miles offshore), radiation pagers go off at Level 9 (highest) at 10 feet from a group of containers on deck. A gamma radiation detector yields levels higher than background. The Captain of the container ship denied any knowledge of radioactive material onboard. Boarding crew notifies the command center. Other notifications include NRC, Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE), Customs and Border Protection, Port Authorities, State of Florida, Dept. of Energy, FBI, vessel agent, flag nation. Date, time: April 6, 2004,at 1300 Weather: SW winds at 10 knots. Seas 2-4 feet.

9420.82 Hazard Assessment

Reps from FL DOH (office of radiation control), 44th Civil Support Team (national guard from Camp Blanding) would do detailed onboard radiation survey using radio isotope identification detector (RIID) to determine what is on vessel. Potential to have NEST team from Patrick AFB included in survey team.

Response needs: Use matrix for nuclear hazards to determine which federal agency is in charge (DOE, DOD) BRAC (Bureau of Radiation Control). Security issues: Quarantine entire vessel and crew. Establish security zone to ensure safety of other vessels. Vessel entry into port restricted. Possibility of port closure. Health & safety issues: Establish 10-foot perimeter around container emitting gamma radiation. Initial survey actions and observations: Radiation detection pagers went off at Level 9 (highest) at 10 feet. Detected gamma radiation. Establish 10-foot perimeter around container. Response needs: Crew is compliant so move vessel out 50 miles with CG escort. Establish UC. Get copies of cargo manifest and stowage plan. Agencies combine knowledge, efforts and resources. Possibly use an explosive sniffing dog. The primary concern is human health exposure to an unknown radiation source. Possible hazard to general population, crew, and responders. Possible disruption of trade due to possible port closure.

9420.83 Risk Assessment

Range from none to nuclear explosion. Secure airspace, shipping lanes to ensure 50 mile perimeter. Response and cleanup recommendations: Radiation team boards vessel for analysis and continuous monitoring of radiological substance. Begin to plan for response operations. Establish shielding for crew. Decontamination crew and ship and cargo. Repack cargo as necessary. Bilge water could be tested to determine if it is contaminated. Probably no evacuation, the situation would be kept covert. Neutralize any types of device. DOE and DOH determine repackaging/disposal requirements.

End Points: When DOE says it is safe. Use Federal Response Plan matrix to determine who is in charge. U238, U233, U238, Po239 are present in nuclear devices so detectors would be looking for this.

9450 Response Strategies for Group V Persistent Oils

This section will allow any company responsible for generating a Group V Spill Strategies Plan to reference the ACP (and supporting documents) for their Group V plan, if they so desired.

This document is to be a listing of the tools of heavy oil spill response ONLY, and that in no shape or form was this document to be construed as a set means of response to any spill. Every spill situation is unique and should be treated as such. These strategies are merely tools that have been tried in the past, with varying degrees of success. The ACP and this document are resource reference guides. These strategies will offer the responders a list of alternatives for consideration. It will UNEQUIVOCALLY be the responsibility of the Responsible Party, in conjunction with the Unified Command, to make the decisions regarding which tools to utilize in any spill response.

The responsible Party will be able to reference this document to cover contingencies for a Group V Persistent Oil Spill, but will not be bound to respond in a set manner to any spill. To the extent that the Responsible Party shows due diligence and with the opportunity to consider every available option, then the response to a spill will continue to be at the company’s discretion. This document uses matrices for quick reference guides on both the Sampling Protocol and the Response Methodology. The environment has been generally divided into three types of location for spill response operations; Rivers / Canals, Estuarine, Open Bays / Ocean

The utilization of the matrices in conjunction with the Streamlined Evaluation Process will enable the response effort to be focused more efficiently. The streamlined Evaluation Process encompasses several diverse components. These components, with Safety Considerations obviously paramount, fall under the general headings of: • Understanding the Product • Understanding the Environment 417 Tampa Bay Area Contingency Plan – 2012 Revision ______• Utilizing the Unified Command Structure • Clean up Criteria • Technical Feasibility • Occupational Safety & Hazard Awareness Divers & Non-Traditional Response Personnel • Availability of Specialized Equipment and Skilled Personnel • Waste Disposal

The consideration of all of these items, in conjunction with the utilization of the locale specific matrices, should help define the goals for each specific spill situation. It may be, in many situations that more damage would be done to the environment by recovery operations than just leaving the product alone to degrade naturally (Unenhanced Bioremediation). The process of Integrated Bathometric Surveys may be utilized in certain situations (such as particularly sensitive areas of the environment, or if the spilled product is hazardous) to define where extensive sampling would be appropriate. Contractors that are familiar with this particular type of survey should be employed to achieve the optimum results. In most cases, it appears that the low-tech options are much more efficient, productive and preferable to the highly sophisticated methods that may be appropriate for only a few situations. These highly technical methods are for the most part, high-cost, low-efficiency methods of response. It is desirable that responders have a range of options available to them to choose from, and this document is a listing of the current tools available. After the document is complete, the Group V Committee intends to reconvene once per year to incorporate any new technology or advancement in response methodology and assess the validity of the document.

Viewing Altitude: Reconnaissance from an altitude of 1,000 to 2,000 ft, but closer observations may be from 200 to 500 ft. 422 Tampa Bay Area Contingency Plan – 2012 Revision ______

Sun Angle: To minimize sunspots and to maximize illumination of the ocean bottom features, a sun angle of 20-25 degrees is optimum, but good results can be obtained with a sun angle of 10-30 degrees.

Cloud Cover: Clear days are optimal since they provide the best illumination of the sea floor. Also, shadow from passing clouds can be mistaken for submerged oil or depressions in the ocean floor.

Sea surface Roughness: The presence of whitecaps and larger waves can obscure the interpreter’s view of the sea floor.

Availability: Availability of aircraft and trained personnel is generally good. Reliability: Very dependent on the degree of water clarity. Costs: Low

Aircraft Camera

Description: Used to systematically photo document a large area. Photos must be developed, interpreted, and geo-referenced. The level of accuracy provided by this technique depends mainly upon clarity and depth of water and the roughness of the surface waves.

423 Tampa Bay Area Contingency Plan – 2012 Revision ______Availability: The photography can be flown by most aerial photography services if provided with the above flight planning characteristics. Reliability: Very dependent on the degree of water clarity. Costs: Low

Photobathymetry

Description: Generally, photobathymetry is a time-consuming and labor-intensive process that uses aerial photography to accurately map the contours of the sea floor in order to find depressions where sunken oils are likely to accumulate. The level of accuracy needed would probably make this impractical to implement in the time constraints imposed by most oil calls. The description below assumes a faster, but more qualitative approach of using stereo photography to visually locate depressions in the sea floor and then hand sketching these areas onto a navigable basemap.

System Components

Aircraft: Specially modified small, fixed-wing aircraft with camera mount Camera type: 35 mm, 70 mm, or 9” x 9” Film Type: standard color film, color MS films with a 420-nanometer cutoff filter GPS Referenced: not usually available Photorectification: time consuming because of the photogrammetric procedures involved and the need for ground control points

Geographic Response Plans, Environmentally Sensitive Index maps and the Tidal Inlet Protection Strategies can be found at: http://ocean.floridamarine.org/acpgrp/ Then click on New GRP Data Viewer (Flex).

9710.1 Geographical Areas.

Along the West Coast of Florida, five geographical area types are routinely encountered during a response. The strategies outlined are recommendations and should not be adhered to in a strict manner because the variables involved in the proper mitigation of a spill are different from case to case. The greatest effect on controlling a spill comes from good decision-making of the person(s) in charge. In the event of a worst-case discharge, quick, decisive actions are the key to a successful response.

The five geographical area types in the COTP zone are:

9710.11 Marshes, Tidal Flats and Seagrass Beds.

These are high sensitivity areas where cleanup is not generally recommended because heavy equipment and laborers may cause more damage than good. Since a complete cleanup is nearly impossible, the best strategy is to protect the area prior to contamination. Considerations on whether a cleanup should be carried out would depend, in part, upon seasonal variations such as migrating bird patterns. The most effective procedure, if indeed a cleanup is carried out, would be skimmers along the waters edge and the deployment of deflection boom in order to shield the area from any recontamination. Tidal fluctuations are a prime concern. Another is the shallow depth of water making access by water more difficult. Strict avoidance of land contact should be made. The area should only be accessed via waterways. Booming or skimming operations would be difficult if not impossible during maximum flood or ebb tide. These areas are home to sea grasses, and numerous fauna, aquatic and fowl. Most often these are the sensitive areas requiring special attention.

9710.12 Sand Beaches.

Cleanup along sandy beach depends on the amount and type of fuel involved. If a sandy shoreline has heavy and extensive fuel coverage the use of heavy industrial equipment such as bulldozers or road graders could be utilized (this would be followed by the replacement of the sediment). In the case of minor ecological damage, a manual cleanup

433 Tampa Bay Area Contingency Plan – 2012 Revision ______maybe performed, if possible, which would eliminate the removal of sediment and the overall effect on the ecological balance of a particular beach. Cleanup efforts must include effective measures to protect nesting sea turtles and shore birds.

Different types of cleanup methods may involve rock-washing, use of sorbent equipment, harbor boom for corralling a product against land and vacuum trucks to pick up the product. Given the economic aspects of the tourist trade on the local economy, beach contamination and cleanup is very visible to the public and the press.

9710.13 Bays and Water Inlets.

The most effective weapon to combat an inlet-waterway spill is a quick response. The prompt, proper placement of deflection booming or corralling oil in boom for open water pockets can help reduce the spread of a product. Deflection boom should be used to guide the leading edge of a spill into a natural collection point where the product can be skimmed, vacuumed or absorbed with sorbent equipment.

9710.14 Offshore Areas.

In-areas offshore, the use of dispersant materials maybe beneficial depending on on-scene weather, product type, quickness of application after spill, proper application and current patterns. The proper use of dispersants (many miles offshore) can minimize shoreline impact. A combination of unmanageable seas and wind conditions could impede the use of other forms of mitigation such as skimmers, booms or sorbents. A spill out at sea may not be as bad as a near shore spill because the effects of nature affect mitigation process as the product can be broken up or dissipate long before it creates a problem along the coastline. Refer to Annex G for more information regarding to dispersant use.

9710.15 Islands.

Along the West Coast, there are many barrier islands, which are inhabited by various species of wildlife. An oil spill in these areas could have a devastating impact on the ecological balance of a particular habitat. The use of protective booming placed along the shoreline of islands as well as skimmer usage is the most effective means in reducing the effects of a spill.

9710.2 Environmental Maps

The following environmental maps will aide in responding to a spill or hazardous substance release. They provide data about specific areas and the sensitive characters the area contains, as well as strategies on how to protect resources within the area. The AOR maps in this section contain data sheets, which provide critical data for priority and response activities. Listed resource trustees should be contacted to participate in establishing protection priorities and response activities. Trustees are equipped with updated information on the status of resources, which may not be depicted, on the maps.

The Environmental Sensitivity Index (ESI) maps of Tampa Bay, is a planning tool that shall be viewed when determining how to control a spill occurring in Tampa Bay. Information on ESI maps and ordering can be obtained through NOAA on the world wide web at: http://response.restoration.noaa.gov/esi/esiintro.html

The State of Florida, Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) along with the Marine Spill Response Corporation jointly sponsored the development of the "Tidal Inlet Protection Strategies for Oil Spill Response" plan. This plan provides detailed information needed to boom all tidal inlets of Pinellas, Hillsborough, Manatee, Sarasota, Charlotte, Lee and Collier 434 Tampa Bay Area Contingency Plan – 2012 Revision ______counties as well as detailed information needed to support operations on site. It provides inlet summary sheets listing the principal resources at risk and preliminary protection strategy, chart pictorials, inlet sketch maps, site information records and aerial photographs of each inlet in chronological order. The information contained in this augments Tampa’s Area Contingency Plan. Additional information can also be obtained by calling the Research Planning Institute at (803) 256-7322.

The eastern offshore boundary is a line bearing 227 T from 00’N Latitude 30’W Longitude to the offshore extent of the EEZ.

9710.6 Tidal Inlet Protection Strategies

Tidal Inlet Protection Strategies for Oil Spill Response provides detailed information on booming strategies for 37 tidal inlets located in Pinellas, Hillsborough, Manatee, Sarasota, Charlotte, Lee and Collier counties. It provides a synopsis of relevant characteristics of the tidal inlets as well as a discussion of potential protection strategies for each inlet. It also provides detailed logistics information needed to support these operations on site. This mapping document was made part of the Tampa Area Contingency Plan at the request of the Florida Department of Environmental Protection. The document was prepared by Research Planning Inc. in 1995 and is based on research supported by Marine Spill Response Corporation and the Florida Department of Environmental Protection. This information provided is for guidance only; each strategy will vary due to time and location specific external factors.

G. D. Case Captain, U. S. Coast Guard Sector St. Petersburg’ Captain of the Port Federal On Scene Coordinator

Enclosure (1) Geographic Response Plan Decision Flowchart

438 Tampa Bay Area Contingency Plan – 2012 Revision ______

9720 Sensitive Area Information

The Captain of the Port St. Petersburg Zone contains Florida’s largest open water estuary, Tampa Bay. The waters along the Gulf Coast of Florida are abundant with both animal and plant life. Some type of organism utilizes every niche from mudflats to mangroves and from narrow creeks to clear offshore waters. Winds, currents and gravity cause spills to spread out and drift, which will ultimately impact plants and animals.

Effective response planning involves identifying the sensitivity of each habitat within the COTP zone and setting priorities as to which areas should be protected first. Protection priority criteria for the Sector St. Petersburg zone is the following:

High: Protection of sensitive areas and public health.

1. Exposed tidal Flats, shallow sea grasses (

Medium: Sheltered rocky shores and seawalls w/rip rap. 1. All other beaches

Low: Public parks & recreation areas without sensitive shorelines or water intakes.

1. Seawalls without rip rap 2. Tourist/recreation areas / no water intakes 3. Industrial facilities 4. Industrial water supply not impacting public needs and/or safety 5. Other developed land

9720.1 Archaeological and Tribal Use Areas

Archaeological sites and tribal use areas are plentiful within the Sector St. Petersburg AOR. These areas are considered level (A) for protection and must be quickly evacuated for determination of protection strategies. This information is readily available from the FDEP office in Tampa at (813) 272-2456.

9720.2 Sensitive Habitats & Species

9720.21 Marine Turtle (Endangered/Threatened)

Marine turtle nesting occurs from May to August. Oil on the beach and in the surf zone threatens newly hatched turtles, which are extremely vulnerable during this time. Nests can be removed from an impacted area but this must be done within two days of lying or the nest will be to far along in development to safely move. Green turtles eat sea grass and are especially vulnerable if the oil contaminates the sea grass bed where they feed. All marine turtles are either endangered or threatened.

9720.22 Manatees (Endangered Species)

Manatees grow to an average of 10 feet and weigh as much as 3,000 pounds. They feed entirely on aquatic plants. During an oil spill, care should be taken when deploying and maintaining boom from boats so propellers do not injure manatees. Directing an oil spill away from sea grass beds and other aquatic plants can best protect manatees.

9720.23 Mangroves/Salt Marsh

Mangroves provide food and shelter for numerous fish and shellfish. Mangroves and salt marshes are vital to the ecology of estuaries. They provide sheltered nurseries for almost every species of commercial fish and shellfish. Larva and juvenile fish find excellent protection among the twisted roots and leaf debris. Mangroves also provide critical habitat for various species of birds (nesting and roosting). When petroleum products or crude oil impacts a mangrove population and becomes stranded at low tide, the oil will migrate down into the root system and kill the tree. Once in the substrate, the oil can remain for many years because sunlight and oxygen are needed for it to be broken down naturally. Protective 440 Tampa Bay Area Contingency Plan – 2012 Revision ______booming should be used to direct the oil away from mangroves and salt marshes.

9720.24 Seabirds

Seabirds are an important component of the rich diversity of animal life within the Sector St. Petersburg zone. They often breed in large colonies. Wading, shore and diving birds are extremely vulnerable in the event of a spill. Effort to save the birds should be made during a spill. Air cannons can be used to scare the birds away from an oil slick. Cleaning stations can be set up to clean and medicate oil-covered birds. Low flying aircraft (i.e. news coverage) must be kept at a distance to prevent nesting birds from staying off of their nests. All protection and cleanup activities concerning seabirds and other wildlife must be coordinated through the Florida Fish & Wildlife Conservation Commission (FFWCC), which can be contacted at (904) 488-1960. Response personnel on land should also be made aware of the nesting situation and what to watch for by contacting the FFWC, on-scene coordinator directly, or indirectly via the Scientific Support Coordinator.

9720.25 Sea Grass Beds

Sea grass beds in the Tampa Bay and Fort Myers area are dominated by turtle grass, manatee grass and shoal grass. Rich pastures of sea grass can be found in the Terra Ceia aquatic preserve and around Mullet Key. Sea grass is vital to the ecology of Tampa Bay. It provides shelter and nursery areas to a diversity of marine organisms including the manatee and green sea turtle. Sea grass beds tend to trap oil, which can then remain in the system for many years. The toxic effects of spilled oil on sea grass are easily transferred to manatees or sea turtles upon ingestion. Especially vulnerable are those sea grass, which are tidal or <1 meter in depth.

9720.26 Tidal Flats

Tidal Flats may appear as desolate stretches of mud during low tide, but they in fact support a thriving community of organisms including crabs, clams, and oysters. Tidal Flats are sensitive to oil spills because oil stranded on the mud flats during low tide migrates down into the substrate and is difficult to remove. Cleanup operations are not recommended because they can cause more damage than the oil.

9720.27 Sandy Beaches

Sandy beaches account for a substantial portion of the marine habitat. Periodic storms change the slope of the beach face and alter the beach face. Beach slopes differ in our AOR. Exposed sandy beaches contain well sorted, fine to coarse sand and contain simple biological communities which support shorebird resting, feeding habitats and turtle nesting. Sheltered sandy beaches are composed of poorly sorted fine sand or mud near the low-tide zone and medium or course sands on the upper beaches. These sheltered beaches support a moderately rich biological community. This type of beach supports seabird and shorebird resting habitats and turtle nesting. The Florida beaches are of prime interest to the Florida resident and the tourist trade. On the West Coast of Florida the water depth is very shallow. The preferred protection method for sandy beaches are booms used offshore to prevent oil from entering beach areas. Dispersants used offshore, when approved, is a highly effective means to prevent oil contamination from reaching beaches and sensitive backshore areas.

9720.28 Birds

Information on migrating seasons and nesting habits can be obtained by contacting Florida Game and Fish Commission at (904) 488-1960.

Volume II contains guidance procedures to implement and monitor their use, as well as document lessons learned. Much of the information in Volume II is region- specific.

9730.1 Dispersants

The USCG, EPA, DOI, DOC, and the coastal states of RRT IV have adopted the use of dispersants as an approved tool to respond to spilled or discharged oil on ocean and coastal waters within the jurisdiction of RRT IV. The RRT has developed a guide/job aid, which includes a comprehensive review of all countermeasures, alternate sorbants, bioremediation, dispersants, elasticity modifiers and insitu burns. Information can be obtained by visiting their website at http://www.nrt.org.

In general pre-authorization exists 3 miles seaward of any land providing that the water

443 Tampa Bay Area Contingency Plan – 2012 Revision ______depth is at least 10 meters deep. Three zones have been established to delineate locations and conditions under which dispersant application operations may take place in waters of federal Region IV. They are:

Green Zone. (Pre-authorization for dispersant application) The Green zone is defined as any offshore water within federal Region IV in which ALL of the following three conditions apply: a. the waters are not classified within a "Yellow" or "Red" zone; b. the waters are at least three miles seaward of any shoreline; c. the waters are at least 10 meters in depth

Yellow Zone. (Waters Requiring Case-by-Case Approval) The Yellow zone is defined as any waters within federal Region IV which have not been designated as a "Red" zone, and in which ANY of the following conditions apply:

a. the waters fall under State, or special federal management jurisdiction;

b. the waters are within three miles of a shoreline, and/or falling under state jurisdiction c. the waters are less than 10 meters in depth

d. the waters are n mangrove or coastal wetland ecosystems, or directly over living coral communities which are in less than 10 meters of water.

Red Zone. (Exclusion Zone) The Red zone is that area, or areas, designated by the Region IV Response Team in which dispersant use is prohibited. No dispersant application operations will be conducted at any time in the Red zone unless:

a. dispersant application is necessary to prevent or mitigate a risk to human health and safety;

b. an emergency modification of the Region IV Response Team dispersants agreement is made on an incident-specific basis Note - The Region IV Response Team has not currently designated any areas as Red zones, but retains the right to include areas for exclusion in the future.
