The Your Company, Your Facility Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasure (SPCC) Plan has been prepared to eliminate or minimize the potential environmental risk of oil/contaminate spills, resulting from substation operations. Applicable implementation components include the following:
Prevention – Operational best management practices (BMPs) including operating procedures, maintenance, training, inspection, record keeping, housekeeping, and waste management.
Control – Source control constructed to control the release of spills to the environment, such as secondary containment structures.
Countermeasures – Emergency spill response procedures, including spill reporting, response, and cleanup procedures to be implemented by spill response personnel.
This plan is intended to identify the spill risks present at the Your Facility and define the facilities and procedures used to prevent, control, and respond to spills. Information is provided in the following:
Facility Information: Describes structures, equipment/material, and physical characteristics of the facility to control spills and prevent releases to the environment. Identifies oil/contaminate spill risks at the Your Facility, including the locations, types, and quantities of oil/contaminate on-site.
Spill Response Procedures: Defines plans, procedures, and equipment/material to be used by personnel to implement spill detection, reporting, response, countermeasures, cleanup, and emergency notification contacts.
Equipment/Materials Operation and Maintenance: Summarizes information related to operation and maintenance (routine and following system upset) of specific equipment/material used for spill response.
Inspections: Defines a strategy for spill detection and facility maintenance, including checklists for documenting facility/equipment/materials inspections and spill kit inventory.
Spill Reports: This section contains spill report forms to use in the event of a spill at the facility. Spill records for the Your Facility are kept at the Engineering Office.
Maps and Drawings: Includes substation location information, regional topographic features, facility plan drawings, and aerial photography. fn: Your Company SPCC Plan.doc 4 4/4/2018 ADDITIONAL SPCC PLAN COMPONENTS
SPCC Plan Revision :
Any revisions to this SPCC Plan, in response to operational/facility modifications and/or in response to changes in regulatory requirements, are documented and certified by a professional engineer.
Personnel Training :
Briefings for Operations personnel are scheduled at least once per year for the purpose of keeping them informed of oil/contaminate control techniques and equipment/materials. Current SPCC Plan requirements and pollution control laws, rules, and regulations are also included in these briefings. Periodic information training sessions are held for field maintenance, operation, and construction employees who might be involved in containment and clean-up operations. The Operations Management Office maintains all training records.

1. Contain the oil/contaminate spill within the facility.
The containment system consists of:
THIS FACILITY HAS X% SLOPE FROM
Refer to Table 1 for Equipment/Materials Inventory and SPCC Site Plan.
NOTIFY THE SPILL RESPONSE COORDINATOR.
CONTAIN THE OIL/CONTAMINATE FLOW BY SURROUNDING THE SPILL with sorbent booms, matting, or a gravel berm lined with sorbent material. INTERCEPTOR TRENCHING can be utilized to limit the spread of released oil/contaminate. LINE THE TRENCHES with polyethylene and sorbent matting.
DO NOT TEAR THE GEOMEMBRANE LINER WHEN WORKING ADJACENT TO ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT/MATERIALS.
2. Keep the spill from reaching any body of water.
fn: Your Company SPCC Plan.doc 8 4/4/2018 3. Oil/Contaminate Migrating Offsite.
Oil/Contaminate Entering Surrounding Drainage Ditches
Oil/Contaminate Entering Infiltration Pit
PRIOR TO USED SORBENT RETRIEVAL, LAY POLYETHYLENE ON PIT EMBANKMENTS TO LIMIT CONTAMINATION TO THE GROUND.
Pooling Areas
In the event oil/contaminate reaches any pooling area, it may be possible to increase the holding capacity by building up soil/contaminate berms around the pooling area. Utilize sorbent booming techniques to contain and collect released oil/contaminate.
IF MODERATE OR LARGE VOLUMES OF OIL/CONTAMINATE ARE PRESENT, NOTIFY THE SPILL RESPONSE COORDINATOR TO ENGAGE VACUUM TRUCKS OR PORTABLE SKIMMERS WITH CONTAINMENT BOOM, ON SITE WITH TRAINED RESPONSE PERSONNEL.
4. Spill Notification
The person reporting the oil/contaminate spill shall then notify appropriate personnel (see NOTIFICATION LIST for names and phone numbers).
5. Spill Log/Report
The first responder needs to document the sequence of events regarding the spill. Use the SPILL LOG/REPORT form. Spill Response Coordinator is responsible for the completion of any SPILL LOG/REPORT and subsequent regulatory notifications.
6. Spill Response Coordinator
Should the spill prove to be operationally beyond the capability of company personnel, notify the Spill Response Coordinator (refer to the NOTIFICATION LIST).
