D-1 iii Army National Guard OIL SPILL PREVENTION AND CONTINGENCY PLAN INTRODUCTION Mobile Fuel Tankers (MFTs) are used by the Army National Guard (ARNG) for a variety of transportation-related purposes. Based on ARNG history, the most common uses with the potential to adversely affect the environment include fuel transport, refueling operations, fuel transfer, and parking. This plan is designated to address these typical potential spill situations and discuss spill prevention and response contingencies. ABOUT THIS PLAN Purpose and Scope The purpose of this Oil Spill Prevention and Contingency Plan (OSPCP) is to establish procedures for preventing and responding to discharges that may occur from ARNG-owned MFTs. Designed using guidance from the Clean Water Act (CWA), and intended to meet the requirements for a Department of Transportation (DOT) Response Plan for MFTs (49 CFR 130.31), this OSPCP also provides guidance for transporting fuel, conducting refueling operations, transferring fuel, and parking. Filing This Plan This OSPCP must be kept in each MFT, as well as one copy must be kept on file at the ARNG’s State Environmental Office where the MFT is assigned. By law this plan only applies to MFTs with a capacity of 3,500 gallons or more (49 CFR 130.31), but may be kept in MFTs with less than a 3,500-gallon capacity as a guidance document for preventing and responding to spills. As a Best Management Practice (BMP) all ARNG MFTs are required to have this OSPCP in them at all times. In order to provide maximum protection to the environment and the general public, the ARNG is instituting the plan to exceed the regulatory standards and provide spill plans to all of its MFTs. iv Army National Guard OIL SPILL PREVENTION AND CONTINGENCY PLAN Spill response supplies will also be carried in all ARNG MFTs at all times. MANAGEMENT RESPONSIBILITY Unit Commanders are directly responsible for oil spill prevention and control for this MFT. The United States ARNG is committed to providing the necessary resources to prevent spills and, if necessary, to quickly control and remove harmful quantities of oil or hazardous substances discharged from this vehicle. PRIVATE RESPONSE PERSONNEL In accordance with (IAW) 49 CFR 130.31(3), a list of private personnel and equipment available to respond to a spill from this vehicle is provided in the plastic folder at the back of this OSPCP. This list may also contain public services that respond to spills, such as the Fire Department. This list must be maintained by the individual states where this plan is employed. STATE-SPECIFIC REQUIREMENTS Your state may have adopted regulations or policies that are more stringent than the requirements of this plan. A summary of those requirements, if any, can be found in the plastic folder at the back of this OSPCP. In the event you are hauling fuel in another state and need guidance, refer to the list of all state Departments of Transportation (DOT) and Emergency Response coordinators in Appendix A. This list has the state DOT and emergency contact phone numbers. There is also a list of ARNG Environmental Office phone numbers provided in Appendix B. v Army National Guard OIL SPILL PREVENTION AND CONTINGENCY PLAN This page intentionally left blank. vi Army National Guard SECTION 1: Spill Response Spill Response OIL SPILL PREVENTION AND CONTINGENCY PLAN SPILL RESPONSE AND CONTINGENCY A timely response to a spill is critical. How you respond depends on whether the spill is an emergency or an incidental releaserelease. Responding to Emergency Releases Emergency spills are spills that CANNOT be absorbed or otherwise controlled at the time of release by personnel in the immediate release area. These include spills that pose a significant safety or health hazard, such as fire or explosion, or that may reach a water source. Follow these steps when responding to an emergency spill: Step 1. Evacuate all personnel to a safe distance upwind from the spill. Secure the area, and immediately notify the local Fire Department. If phone number is unavailable, use the phone numbers provided in the plastic folder at the back of this OSPCP or the Appendices. Be prepared to provide the following information: ! Your name ! Location of spill ! Substance spilled ! Number of any injured personnel and nature of injuries ! Amount spilled and extent it has traveled ! Amount stored and rate at which substance is spilling (estimated) ! Time spill started When the Fire Department/Emergency Spill Response arrives, make yourself available to the Senior Emergency Response Official in charge. 1-1 Army National Guard OIL SPILL PREVENTION AND CONTINGENCY PLAN SECTION 1 Step 2. As soon as possible, notify by telephone the state ARNG Environmental Section (Appendix A) or the Staff Duty Officer, and the Unit Commander. A list of important phone numbers is provided in the plastic folder at the back of this OSPCP, and/or in the Appendices. Only notify other agencies and/or response organizations if instructed to do so by your chain of command. Step 3. Complete the Spill Incident Report form located in the plastic folder at the back of this OSPCP and submit it to your state ARNG Environmental Section within 72 hours. An example of the form is provided at the end of this section for you to photocopy and use if no Complete printed copies are available. Spill Incident Report form Responding to Incidental Releases Incidental releases are spills small enough to be handled using personnel and equipment routinely located in the immediate

This report contains information about the services provided to our country and the State of Iowa during this fiscal year by the citizen-soldiers of the Iowa National Guard. The Iowa National Guard had several outstanding achievements during this past fiscal year. The most significant has been the mobilization of over 4,700 soldiers and airmen to worldwide locations to support US efforts against the global war on terrorism since September 2001. Every Iowa Guard citizen-soldier that deployed was the consummate product of our core functions. We successfully deployed combat-ready soldiers in record numbers because we achieved the high standards of our established services, products, and activities. Another major achievement was our continued high national ranking in the Army Community of Excellence National Guard category competition. We again placed in the top three states in the nation in this highly competitive program to evaluate and reward program performance excellence and continual improvement. The Iowa Guard was judged the first in the nation during 2001 and 2003. We continue to be one of the best three National Guards in the nation.

  • RODERICK R. LEON GUERRERO HAGATNA, GUAM I Have Quietly
    RODERICK R. LEON GUERRERO HAGATNA, GUAM I have quietly listened to the ongoing controversy over my relief as Adjutant General for the Guam National Guard (GUNG). I’ve wrestled with how and if I should respond. I have determined there is a need to respond to defend the good Soldiers, Airmen, and Civilian Employees of our GUNG because of the weak response by the GUNG when asked for comments by the media about the transition report. My response is based on my memory, I do not have access to reports, but can be validated by the GUNG, and does not cover all concerned areas identified in the transition report. My primary concern is the accuracy and the generalization of the transition report leaked to the media. The unintended consequences of a potentially inaccurate transition report combined with the press coverage and negative public perception of the GUNG may have an impact on the morale of the hardworking and dedicated Soldiers, Airmen, and Civilian employees of the GUNG. I question how the transition report can measure sexual assault/sexual harassment (SA/SH), low morale, fraternization, inequalities in promotion, an untenable ratio of men to women in leadership and command positions in the Guam Guard. The transition committee could have used federally produced reports to help with their assessment. I suspect that someone or a members from the Leon Guerrero-Tenorio Transition Team interviewed service members of the GUNG. Civilians of a political team interviewing U.S. service members is not appropriate. There are protocols in place to obtain information from service members.
