Advanced Environmental Management (AEM) Training Phase I Spills, Contingency Plans (CP) & Emergency Response

Objectives Define Spill Why Spills Happen Reasons for Spill Response How to Prevent Spills Spill Response Procedures Penalties

Leakage, seepage, or other release What is a Spill? Leakage, seepage, or other release The unintentional or intentional spilling, leaking, pumping, pouring, emptying, or dumping of hazardous waste, material or petroleum product into or on any land, water or air Though response to an intentional spill is the same, it is not generally considered a spill, but more often a FELONY!

How do Spills Occur? Refueling Vehicle and vessel maintenance/movement HazMat storage/handling/transporting Auto accidents Equipment malfunctions/breakage Human error The top two causes of spills on Ft. Eustis are human error and equipment malfunction.

What Can I Do To Prevent Spills? Provide secondary containment Use funnels when filling Keep clear of water sources/drains Use drip pans Use proper materials Follow written SOPs Oil spill prevention is the least costly alternative to industry and the government.

Mandated by Federal and State Regulations Why Respond? Human health and/or life Wildlife (on land and in the water) Environment (i.e. drinking water) May Affect: Aesthetics Oil Pollution Act of 1990 (OPA ‘90) Federal Water Pollution Control Act (Clean Water Act) Superfund amendments & Reauthorization Act (SARA) Resource Conservation & Recovery Act (RCRA) Mandated by Federal and State Regulations Our Spill Prevention Control & Countermeasure (SPCC) plan and storm water permit requires us to clean up all spills! If you dump it or spill it you may be drinking it!

If I don’t Respond??? What are the Consequences of a Spill? Notice of Violation (NOV) Costs Financial Cleanup Disposal Remediation Legal Consequences Fines: $250,000 per individual $500,000 per organization Jail: Up to 15 years in prison. Responsible parties at onshore facilities and deepwater ports are liable for up to $350 million per spill Costs for clean ups of spills increases every year. Spill clean up is paid for by the responsible party.

What Do I Do? Protect Yourself Stop the Flow Contain The Spill Utilize Proper PPE Proper ID of released material Stop the Flow If SAFE to do so! Contain The Spill Different Adsorbents for different spills (oil-only, universal & acid/bases) Call the Fire Department 878-1008 or 911 Commanders and Supervisors must Encourage not discourage Spill reporting!

What Do I Do? ALL spills must be reported to Fire and Emergency Services! For Emergencies, Large Spills or any release into water or storm drains, dial: 911 For small spills, controlled situations or if calling from a mobile phone, dial: 878-1008 – JBLE Eustis Includes: All hazardous materials Chemicals Petroleum, Oil & Lubricants (POLs) ANY quantity released into any body of water, storm drains Commanders and Supervisors must Encourage not discourage Spill reporting! Timely reporting is IMPORTANT. We have a legal requirement to make spill notifications (certain quantities, depending on substance and anything that enters State waters. State waters are any storm drain, ditch, or other part of our storm water system) immediately upon discovery. When in doubt MAKE THE CALL!

Five Levels of HAZWOPER Training What Do I Do? First Responders - Awareness (Level 1) Witness or discovers , and reports the release or spill, and Assist Emergency Personnel as requested First Responders - Operational (Level 2) Protects nearby persons, property, or the environment from the effects of the release/spill Hazardous Materials Technicians (Level 3) Stops the release at its source Hazardous Materials Specialists (Level 4) Supervise and supports the HM Technicians Incident Commander (Level 5) Assumes control of the incident Five Levels of HAZWOPER Training DO NOT respond above your level of training for safety reasons!

Trained Individuals Should: What Do I Do? Trained Individuals Should: Understand the Role of the First Responder Understand What HMs & Wastes Are Understand Potential Risks and Outcomes Associated with a Release of HMs & Wastes Recognize the Presence and Identify the HM or Waste in an Emergency Have the Ability to Recognize the Need for Additional Resources Regularly review your unit/activity spill plan if appropriate.

Recent Spills Fort Eustis Spill Response Personnel have responded to over 22 Spills during calendar year 2013– 4 Have been reportable to Regulatory Agencies (I.E. VDEQ and the NRC) 09-07-2013– Raw sewage overflow from clogged sewer line. Line was clogged with grease, and paper towels and trash from barracks buildings – Barracks 1001,2,3 and 1004 (200 Gallons) 05-48-2013 – Improper discharge of paint clean up materials to storm drain. Not reported, discovered by FES 3 days later. –128th Aviation BDE (2 Gallons) 05-01-2013 – oily bilge water-Skiffes Creek-US Navy operations– (.01 Gallons) 04-22-2013 – Leaking engine manifold – 3rd Port (.5 Gallons) Throwing paper towels and trash into toilets does not make it disappear! Who still thinks painting clean up wastes including paint thinner is OK to dump on the ground??????????????

New Regulations!!! Site Specific Contingency Plans Must contain certain information Emergency Response Numbers Verbal Notification for Evacuation Site Specific Assembly Points Location of Emergency Equipment Eyewash Fire Extinguishers Spill Kits PPE Reviewed, Dated and Signed Annually No “penciling in” of review dates Posted at the Site Inspected during activity annual assessments, so it is best to review and if there are questions, send it to EE for review.

Did You Know? In The United States there are more than 70 spills reported on an average day. Did you know that the used oil from one oil change can contaminate 1 million gallons of fresh water - a years' supply for 50 people! In Many States, “Backyard Mechanics” dump more used oil into environment each year than the Exxon Valdez spilled into Alaska's Prince William Sound.
