Who Should Attend:
All employees with environmental responsibilities, including supervisors and managers that oversee environmental programs should attend. This includes employees that design or implement oil spill prevention plans and those involved in process, plant, construction, or stormwater discharges.
Course Overview:
Designed for electric utilities as part of NWPPA's Environmental Series, this course is intended as an overview of two highly pertinent portions of the federal Clean Water Act (CWA). The class will address the federal oil Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasure (SPCC) planning rules in accordance with 40 CFR 112. This rule requires utilities to develop comprehensive plans, install oil spill containment, and prepare oil spill response procedures for many facilities that use or store 1,320 gallons or more of oil, including most substations.
Information provided in the course will focus on the federal requirements for the SPCC rule and summarize state and local differences. Attendees will receive valuable course materials that include 1) an overview of the regulation, 2) materials to enable students to determine which of their facilities are covered, and 3) information to take steps to ensure compliance. Students will receive plan templates and links to valuable online information.
Course Objectives - SPCC:
- Review SPCC applicability and requirements, including Tier 1, Tier 2, and Engineered plans
