[]{#__RefHeading___Toc84225184 .anchor}B. SITE DESCRIPTION AND
OPERATIONS

This section describes the site and its operations.

[]{#__RefHeading___Toc84225185 .anchor}**1. Facility Location, Layout,
and Operations**

The facility is located at the northeastern corner of the intersection
of Falcon Drive and Victor Road in Peachtree City, Fayette County,
Georgia, and approximately 500 feet northeast of the Falcon Field
Airport (Figure 1). The facility is owned and administered by NOAA.
Figure 2 depicts the layout of the facility.

The facility has one 300-kilowatt (kW) emergency backup power (electric)
Onan^^ generator with two associated aboveground diesel fuel storage
tanks (ASTs). The generator supplies emergency power to the WFO/RFC, and
has a 2,000-gallon main AST and a 30-gallon day tank. The generator
utilizes No. 2 diesel fuel. The fuel in the main AST is pumped to the
30-gallon day tank via transfer piping, which is connected to the
emergency generator. The generator and day tank are located in the
DDG/storage building. The AST is located adjacent to the eastern
exterior of the DDG/storage building.

The estimated fuel usage is approximately 60 gallons per month. This
estimate is based on extrapolation from recent fuel orders. The
generator is tested once per week for 60 minutes. The generator is also
activated in advance of potential power outages during severe weather
conditions. Obviously, fuel consumption would increase based on the
duration of any power outages.

The WFO/RFC AST is not enclosed in fenced area; however, the facility is
staffed 24-hours a day, 365 days a year. The facility is also monitored
via security cameras, and both the main AST and the DDG/storage building
are located in a lighted area. The DDG/storage building is kept locked.

[]{#__RefHeading___Toc84225186 .anchor}**2. Facility Storage**

The generator and associated day tank for the WFO/RFC are located in the
interior engine room of the DDG/storage building, which is northeast of
the facility building. The associated aboveground storage tank (AST),
which has a capacity of 2,000 gallons, is located adjacent to the
eastern exterior of the facility building. The AST is rectangular in
shape and horizontally situated on a concrete pad. The 2,000-gallon main
tank, an Armor Cast^^ welded steel primary tank, is integrally
constructed with a pre-cast concrete vault. The AST's fill port is
located on the top of the tank and is situated in an overfill well below
the grade of the top of the tank. Piping from the AST leads into the
engine room of the DDG/storage building and into the day tank. The day
tank has a capacity of 30 gallons and feeds directly to the Onan^^
emergency generator. The day tank, mounted against the eastern side of
the generator (and next to the exterior building wall), sits in a steel,
open-topped spill pan which provides secondary containment. The tank is
connected to the generator via ¾ inch (outside diameter) steel pipe. All
of the joints are threaded. The piping is single-walled; however, the
pipe outside the building that leads from the AST to the building is
sheathed in flexible PVC pipe. Flexible hosing connects the steel pipe
from the floor of the space to the engine as a safeguard against rupture
from vibration when the generator is running.

The AST is also equipped with an audible high-level alarm, as well as an
interstitial monitoring device (between the AST and concrete vault) that
is connected to the audible alarm system (Pneumercator^^ LC 1000 alarm
and fill limiter valve). The alarm is mounted on the eastern exterior
wall of the DDG/storage building.

Table 1 in Section 7 summarizes the diesel storage capacities at
Southeast WFO/RFC.

[]{#__RefHeading___Toc84225187 .anchor}**3. Drainage Pathway and
Distance to Navigable Waters**

The topography at the Southeast WFO/RFC facility in Peachtree City
exhibits a slight slope to the southeast across the site. The ground
surface slopes more steeply along the eastern facility boundary. In the
vicinity of the WFO/RFC main AST, the ground surface slopes to the
south, towards the adjoining roadway to the south (Victor Road). Much of
the area downgradient of the main AST is covered with grass. A
gravel-lined drainage channel is located approximately 20 feet south of
the main AST, running east-west from the HVAC units to the adjoining
undeveloped parcel. In addition, a "ground test well" is located
approximately 5 feet south of the main AST. Diesel fuel, being a light
fuel, will easily penetrate the gravel and could infiltrate the
subsurface at the site via the well. A fuel oil spill of sufficient
volume would flow south across a grassed slope, and off-site to the
adjacent paved roadway (Victor Road), which bounds the facility to the
west. A spill would then discharge to storm water inlets located in the
roadway, which eventually discharge to Line Creek. Line Creek is located
approximately 0.5 mile southwest of the facility boundary (See Figure
2).

[]{.mark}

[Two spill kits containing]{.mark} absorbent boom, [pads and pillows,
and drain seals, are located at the WFO/RFC facility. One spill kit is
stationed outside and adjacent to the 2,000 gal AST, and another kit is
located inside the]{.mark} DDG/storage building[, within the engine
room.]{.mark}

[]{.mark}

[A release from the 2,000-gallon AST would spill onto the concrete pad
and then onto the surrounding grassed areas. Any oil spilled in the
engine room that exceeded the secondary containment would spill onto the
floor of the space and out the doorway that faces north. From the
exterior of the doorway, a spill of sufficient volume would then flow
south, overland and off-site. The fueling vehicle parks at the
northeastern portion of the facility's asphalt-paved parking area,
adjacent to the fueling port of the main AST. The trucks that supply
fuel to Southeast WFO/RFC typically are constructed with 3 or 4 separate
compartments. In most cases the trucks utilize automatic shutoff nozzles
(similar to the types used at gas stations) to prevent
overfilling.]{.mark}

[]{#__RefHeading___Toc84225188 .anchor}**4. Spill History**

Reportable spill events from 1994 to present (date on cover of this
plan):

**None**.

[]{#__RefHeading___Toc84225189 .anchor}**5. Spill Potential, Volumes,
and Rates**

The most likely causes of spills from the AST are from overfilling or a
ruptured hose during refueling, a failure of one of the compartments of
the fuel truck, failure of the structural integrity of the AST, or a
ruptured fuel line.

If conducted according to plan and with good management practices, large
spills from fueling operations are not likely.

For the main AST and the day tank, a large spill caused by loss of
structural integrity or vehicle collisions are low probability events
owing to alarm systems, weekly testing of the generator and daily
observations by NWS personnel.

Table 2 summarizes the potential type of spills, volumes, and rates.

[]{#__RefHeading___Toc84225190 .anchor}**6. Discussion of Facility
Conformance with 40 CFR 112**

[]{#__RefHeading___Toc84225192 .anchor}PART II - DESIGN COMPONENTS AND
OPERATIONAL PROCEDURES FOR SPILL PREVENTION AND CONTROL

This section discusses spill prevention and control measures that have
been or will be implemented at the facility to prevent oil spills.

[]{#__RefHeading___Toc84225193 .anchor}A. TANK AND SYSTEM DESIGN FOR
SPILL PREVENTION

This section describes design components and operating procedures that
will be implemented at the facility to prevent oil spills.

[]{#__RefHeading___Toc84225194 .anchor}**1. Aboveground Storage Tanks
(AST)**

[[WFO/RFC AST]{.underline}: The AST construction will be compatible with
the]{.mark} No. [2 diesel fuel held by the tank. The AST will have
secondary containment around the primary tank shell. A level gauge or
dipstick will indicate the fuel level (from empty to full).]{.mark}

[]{.mark}

[An automatic shut-off valve on the fill spout will be set to close at
90 percent of capacity (900 gallons). The AST also will have an audible
high-level alarm set at 85 percent of capacity (850 gallons) and
interstitial monitoring device between the primary and secondary tanks
that is connected to the audible alarm system. A seven-gallon capacity
spill container will surround the fill spout.]{.mark}

[]{.mark}

[[Day Tank]{.underline}: This tank will have an open top spill pan
(rupture basin) designed to hold 110 percent of the tank volume. It will
have a liquid level gauge to indicate the amount of fuel in the tank
(empty to full) and a high-level float switch connected to the audible
alarm to warn of overfilling. The rupture basin will have a float switch
designed to detect fuel that has spilled or leaked. The float switch
will be connected to an audible alarm system in the office.]{.mark}

[Piping]{.underline}: An anti siphoning valve [will]{.mark} be located
between the AST and the pump to prevent unwanted fuel from being
siphoned from the AST.

[]{#__RefHeading___Toc84225195 .anchor}**2. Tank Refueling and Truck
Unloading Operations**

All delivery drivers [will]{.mark} have U.S. Department of
Transportation hazardous material transportation training as required by
Federal law.

The remainder of this section discusses the procedures that
[will]{.mark} be used during unloading of fuel from the tank truck into
the AST to prevent spills. This procedure [will]{.mark} be documented
every time refueling occurs using the appropriate form (See Appendix A).
Copies of these forms [will]{.mark} be kept for 5 years.

a\. The following procedure [will]{.mark} be used
**[before]{.underline}** fuel delivery and unloading:

(See Appendix A-2)

i.  If applicable, place a magnetic, urethane spill cover over the storm
    drain catch basin inlet. At this facility, a neoprene dike
    [will]{.mark} be placed downgradient of the refueling truck parking
    location and of the main AST to prevent a release from reaching the
    storm water drain inlets (located in the adjacent roadway).
    Additionally, a neoprene drain cover should be placed over the
    on-site well.

ii. The Designated Person or the Designated Person's designated
    representative should determine the available capacity (ullage) of
    the AST by converting the reading on the fuel gauge to gallons (see
    Appendix A). This ullage is communicated to the fuel supply
    contractor and marked in the fueling log.

iii. Move spill containment equipment such as booms, spill barriers or
     spill kits into the unloading area.

iv. Block the tank truck wheels.

v.  Place drip pans under all pump hose fittings (if applicable) before
    unloading.

vi. The Designated Person or the Designated Person's designated
    representative and the delivery driver [will]{.mark} ensure the fill
    nozzle is placed in the appropriate AST filling port.

b\. The following procedure [will]{.mark} be used
**[during]{.underline}** the fuel unloading period:

(Appendix A-2)

> i\. The Designated Person or the Designated Person's designated
> representative and the delivery driver [will]{.mark} remain with or
> near the vehicle and the fuel tanks at all times during unloading.
> Gauges on the AST and the truck, as well as the fueling nozzle,
> [will]{.mark} be continuously monitored to ensure the ullage is not
> exceeded. If the audible high-level alarm sounds, stop the unloading
> procedure immediately to ensure fuel ullage is not exceeded.

c\. The following procedure [will]{.mark} be used
**[after]{.underline}** fuel unloading is completed:

(Appendix A-2)

i.  Record the amount of fuel transferred to the AST in the log
    (Appendix A-1).

ii. Drain the fill hose and then ensure that all drain valves are closed
    (if applicable) before removal of the hose from the tank.

iii. Pour any uncontaminated fuel in the drip pans, tank truck
     containment pool, or spill pipe spill bucket container into the AST
     (if it has the capacity) or dispose of appropriately.

iv. Inspect the tank truck before removing the blocks to ensure the
    lines have been disconnected from the tank.

v.  Remove the blocks from truck wheels and remove the neoprene dike and
    drain cover.

vi. Place a copy of the completed fuel-unloading checklist in the SPCC.

[]{#__RefHeading___Toc84225196 .anchor}**3. Inspections and Records**

[Inspection and Maintenance of Tanks:]{.underline} The AST and day tank
[will]{.mark} be inspected, each time a maintenance technician visits
the site, as well as the regularly scheduled monthly inspections, for
any fuel leaks, especially at the tank seams (including the underside of
the tank). The outside of exposed piping [will]{.mark} also be
inspected. Monthly and annual inspections [will]{.mark} follow the
checklists shown in Appendix B-1 and B-2. Monthly and annual inspection
forms will be completed by the staff.

[Integrity Testing:]{.underline} Integrity testing of the ASTs is
required under the new regulations put forth by the U.S Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA). However manufacturers of shop-built tanks have
stated that integrity testing of their tanks is not necessary and that
best management practices should be employed instead. The EPA has
stated, " *for* *certain smaller, shop-built containers in which
internal corrosion poses minimal risk of failure; which are inspected at
least monthly; and, for which all sides are visible (i.e., the container
has no contact with the ground), visual inspection alone might suffice,
subject to good engineering practice.*"

To comply with §112.8.c.6, the Southeast WFO/RFC in Peachtree City will
continue to make observations during generator tests, conduct regular
monthly and annual inspections, and recommend integrity testing only
when it is warranted, e.g. noticeable leakage or corrosion. Testing will
also be conducted if the structural integrity comes into question as a
result of a fire, earthquake or other similar event.

[Record Keeping:]{.underline} The Environmental/Safety Focal Point or
Maintenance Technician, (person responsible for spill prevention at the
facility) [will]{.mark} be responsible for completing (i) the Ullage
Logs and documentation of Fuel Unloading Procedures, (ii) the Records of
Inspections, (iii) the Training Record, and (iv) the Spill Response
Exercise Record. These records [will]{.mark} be maintained for at least
5 years from the time of the recorded action.

[]{#__RefHeading___Toc84225197 .anchor}**4. Site Security**

The WFO/RFC AST is not enclosed in fenced area; however, the facility is
staffed 24-hours a day, 365 days a year. The facility building and the
DDG/storage building including the engine room, are kept locked. The
facility is also monitored via security cameras, and both the main AST
and the DDG/storage building are located in a lighted area.

Signs are posted on and around the AST warning of the presence of a
combustible liquid, the combustible liquid is diesel fuel, and that
smoking is prohibited near the AST. Fire extinguishers are located in
the generator buildings. There is no vehicular traffic near the AST.

[]{#__RefHeading___Toc84225198 .anchor}**5. Training**

As a minimum, the Environmental/Safety focal point, an alternate, and
the responsible manager (MIC, HIC, or OIC) are trained in the intent of
applicable oil spill regulations and how to implement the inspection and
maintenance procedures outlined in the previous paragraph. Spill control
and countermeasure is included in the training. An outline for the
training is found in Appendix C.

Training is repeated once per year. All new personnel responsible for
implementing this SPCC plan are properly trained before beginning work
at the new position. A record of who is trained when, and by whom
(Appendix C) is filed with this SPCC plan and kept for a period of 5
years.

[]{#__RefHeading___Toc84225199 .anchor}B. SPILL CONTROL

This section describes control measures that have been implemented to
prevent any spilled oil from entering navigable waters or adjoining
shorelines.

[]{#__RefHeading___Toc84225200 .anchor}**1. Secondary Containment
Designs, Construction Material, and Volume**

The main AST for the WFO/RFC's generator is fitted with secondary
containment, which consists of a pre-cast concrete vault surrounding the
pressurized double-walled steel tank. Located within the concrete vault
is a moisture sensor (interstitial alarm) which if activated triggers an
audible alarm at the tank. The rust-free concrete protects the AST
against fire, projectiles, and vehicle impact.

The secondary containment for the WFO/RFC generator's day tank is a
steel catch basin mounted under the day tank.

[]{#__RefHeading___Toc84225201 .anchor}**2. Spill Kits Type and
Location**

The Pig 202 spill kits or equivalent [will]{.mark} be located in the
engine room of the DDG/storage building or in the immediate vicinity of
the ASTs. The spill kits are designed to absorb up to 60-gallons each of
diesel fuel and to divert a spill from navigable waters. The kits
include oil absorbent socks and mats in a polyethylene container that
doubles as a disposal container.

[]{#__RefHeading___Toc84225202 .anchor}**3. Drain Inlet Cover**

If applicable, a neoprene dike [will]{.mark} be placed downgradient of
the refueling truck parking location and of the main AST to prevent a
release from reaching the storm water drain inlets (located in the
adjacent roadway), prior to any fuel transfer. Additionally, a neoprene
drain cover [will]{.mark} be placed over the on-site well.

[]{#__RefHeading___Toc84225203 .anchor}**4. Personal Protective
Equipment (PPE)**

If a leak or spill were to occur, it might be necessary for NWS
personnel to conduct initial emergency procedures to minimize the impact
of the spill, control the spill, or secure the area. To employ the SWIMS
procedure (see Part III.A of this plan), it may be necessary for them to
come into contact with the diesel fuel. If this were to occur, NWS
personnel must use proper PPE. Proper PPE for diesel fuel is specified
in the MSDS (Appendix F).

-   Eye protection is accomplished by the use of **Chemical Goggles** or
    a **Full Face Shield**. An **Eyewash Station** should be provided in
    the area.

-   Hand protection is accomplished by the use of **Nitril Gloves** and
    should be worn at all times when handling this material. If there is
    a likelihood of skin exposure then impervious clothing such as
    **Tyvek** should be worn.

Other clothing & equipment - if contaminated, must be removed and
laundered before reuse. Items that cannot be laundered should be
discarded.

[]{#__RefHeading___Toc84225204 .anchor}PART III - SPILL COUNTERMEASURES
AND REPORTING SPILL COUNTERMEASURES

[]{#__RefHeading___Toc84225205 .anchor}A. SPILL COUNTERMEASURES

This section presents countermeasures to contain, clean up, and mitigate
the effects of any oil spills at this site.

[]{#__RefHeading___Toc84225206 .anchor}**1. SWIMS**

A spill containment and cleanup activity will never take precedence over
the safety of personnel. No countermeasures will be undertaken until
conditions are safe for workers. The [SWIMS]{.underline} procedure
should be implemented as countermeasures:

**S** - Stop the leak and eliminate ignition sources.

> a\. Attempt to seal or some how stop leak if it can be done safely.
>
> b\. Attempt to divert flow away from any drainage ditch, storm sewer
> or sanitary sewer with a spill barrier or the contents of spill kit.
> The spill kit is located in the engine room of the DDG/storage
> building, and one is located at the exterior of the DDG/storage
> building, adjacent to the main AST.

c\. Eliminate all ignition sources in the immediate area.

**W** - Warn others.

a\. Yell out "SPILL". Inform the person in-charge at your facility.

b\. Account for all personnel and ensure their safety.

> c\. Notify contacts and emergency response contractor as described in
> the following section for assistance in control and cleanup.

**I** - Isolate the area.

a\. Rope off the area

> **M** - Minimize your exposure to the spilled material by use of
> appropriate clothing and protective equipment. If possible, remain
> upwind of the spilled material.

**S** - Standby to assist the emergency response contractor.

[]{#__RefHeading___Toc84225207 .anchor}B. SPILL REPORTING

This section discusses the reporting procedures for spills of diesel
fuel at the facility. The people and organizations that are notified
vary, based on the quantity of the spill, whether it reaches navigable
waters or adjoining shorelines, the frequency and history of spills and
the potential impacts which the spill may have on people, property, or
the environment.

A spill report form that requests the information to be reported to all
agencies in writing (to the extent known) is included in Appendix D.
Copies of the completed form should be sent to the NWS Environmental
Compliance Officer and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric
Administration (NOAA) Southern Regional Compliance Officer (see next
section).

[]{#__RefHeading___Toc84225208 .anchor}**1. General Notification
Procedures for All Spills**

-   First, call 911 (or the local emergency agency) if there is an
    immediate emergency.

-   Next, notify the appropriate persons within the NWS and NOAA:

    -   **Terry Brisbin, Regional Env/Safety Coord. 817-978-2644 x139**

    -   **Mark George, RECO for the Southern Region 303-497-3064**

    -   **Mike Jacob, NWS Env. Compl. Officer 301-713-1838 x165**

    -   **Olga Kebis, NWS Safety Officer 301-713-1838 x173**

[]{#__RefHeading___Toc84225209 .anchor}**2. Federal Notifications**

The Federal Clean Water Act as described in 40 Part 110.6, requires
notifying the EPA National Response Center or the U.S. Coast Guard
(USCG) as soon as anyone has knowledge of any discharge of oil in
quantities that "may be harmful," 40 CFR 110.3 defines "may be harmful"
as a discharge if either of the following applies:

> Violates applicable water quality standards.
>
> Or
>
> Causes a film or sheen upon or discoloration of the surface of the
> water or adjoining shorelines or cause sludge or emulsion to be
> deposited beneath the surface of the water or upon adjoining
> shorelines.

If either of these criteria is met, contact the following:

> **The National Response Center** **800-424-8802**
>
> **EPA Region 4 404-562-8700**

Additionally, under the SPCC regulations under 40 CFR 112.4(a), if
either of the two spill criteria (listed below) occurs, a report must be
submitted to the EPA Regional Administrator within 60 days:

-   A discharge of more than 1,000 gallons of oil into or upon navigable
    waters or adjoining shore lines in a single event.

-   Two spill events that cause discharge of more than 42 gallons in
    each event, within any 12 month period.

Please refer to 40 CRR 112.4(a) for instructions on the required
contents of the report and proper reporting procedures.

Diesel fuel is not listed as a hazardous substance under the
Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation, and Liability Act
(CERCLA); therefore, no other notification to the EPA is required for
discharges of diesel fuel [other than those listed
previously]{.underline}.

[]{#__RefHeading___Toc84225210 .anchor}**3. State Notifications**

The State of Georgia requires that the spill of any substance including
refined petroleum product (gasoline, diesel, oil, etc.) that could
pollute the waters of the State of Georgia must be reported to the GEPD,
24-Hour Emergency Response, immediately as follows: (Refer to Appendix
D-2 for the Spill Reporting Form)

-   **During business hours, contact the GEPD 404-656-4300**

-   **During non-business hours, contact the GEPD** **800-241-4113**

> **Note: Georgia has not established reportable quantity thresholds.**

[]{#__RefHeading___Toc84225213 .anchor}PART IV - RECOMMENDED
IMPROVEMENTS

In accordance with 40 CFR 112.7, this section presents physical upgrades
or procedural changes that are not yet fully operational but are called
for in the plan.

[]{#__RefHeading___Toc84225214 .anchor}A. PHYSICAL UPGRADES

The ASTs, piping system, alarm system, and spill response equipment
satisfy all current Federal and State of Georgia requirements and are in
good operating condition. However, the following changes and upgrades
are recommended:

-   Provide secondary containment for the refueling truck when
    practicable. Until that time, employ best management practices (see
    below). There are a number of secondary containment options
    available to the agency. There are several types of temporary
    drive-on berm systems commercially available. Another simple option
    might include installing asphalt berms at the fueling site with
    properly engineered and controllable drainage systems. Obviously,
    any engineered system would require the approval of a licensed
    engineer.

> *Note: Currently, industry has requested that EPA redefine the term
> 'loading/unloading rack' (§112.7 (h)). It is possible that a change in
> this definition could exempt a facility from providing secondary
> containment for fuel trucks during fuel delivery for on-site
> consumption.*

-   Have the float switch for the WFO/RFC main AST tested regularly.
    Repair if necessary.

-   Install secure fencing around WFO/RFC main AST when practicable.
    Until such time, continue to employ good security practices such as
    maintain lighting and security cameras.

-   The catch basin for the day tank did not have a level indicator nor
    an alarm. Nor was there one for the day tank. In accordance with
    40CFR §112.8(c).8 installing such a system for the day tank and/or
    the catch basin is recommended.

-   Obtain a neoprene dike to prevent potential spills from discharging
    overland and offsite, to the storm water inlets located in the
    adjacent roadway (and ultimately to Line Creek). Also obtain a
    neoprene drain cover to be placed over the on-site well during
    fueling operations.

-   It is not clear as to the purpose of the flexible PVC sheathing on
    the steel transfer pipe leading from the WFO/RFC AST into the
    DDG/storage building. The PVC sheathing is problematic in that it
    does not allow for routine inspections, and potentially provides an
    environment around the steel transfer pipe that promotes corrosion.
    If the sheathing was meant as secondary containment, then it should
    be removed and a more appropriate form of secondary containment
    installed, such as a lined catch basin. If the sheathing was meant
    as a form of physical protection, then the solid PVC piping should
    exchanged for a sheathing that provides physical protection and
    allows for visual inspection and drainage to reduce the risk of
    corrosion (e.g., PVC drainage piping).

[]{#__RefHeading___Toc84225215 .anchor}B. PROCEDURAL CHANGES

The following procedures and/or procedural changes are recommended:

-   Owing to the lack of secondary containment for the fuel truck, it is
    strongly recommended that proper procedures be diligently followed
    during refueling operations as prescribed in Part II, A.2 and
    Appendix A of this plan.

-   Perform all inspections as outlined in Part II, A.3 and Appendix B
    of this plan.

-   Maintain a training program for all relevant personnel on an annual
    basis and when new personnel report to the facility as prescribed in
    Part II, A.5 and Appendix C of this plan.

-   Continue to conduct spill exercises annually as prescribed in Part
    II, A.5 and Appendix D of this plan.

[]{#__RefHeading___Toc84225216 .anchor}**1. Inspections and Preventative
Maintenance**

The inspection checklists found in Appendix B should be followed. The
interstitial monitoring device in the AST is designed to monitor the
integrity of the primary tank. Visual inspections of the outside of the
secondary wall of the AST and the primary wall of the day tank will
serve to signal a potential problem with the tank integrity.

                 1          Ensure the audible high-level alarm system and   
                            automatic shutoff valve are functioning          
                            properly.                                        

                 2          Determine the available capacity (ullage) of the 
                            above ground storage tanks (AST) by converting   
                            the reading on the fuel gauge to gallons (See    
                            Appendix A, Page A-1). This ullage should then   
                            be marked in the fueling log and communicated to 
                            the tank truck unloading contractor.             

                 3          Move spill containment equipment such as booms   
                            or spill barriers into the unloading area.       

                 4          Block the wheels of the tank truck.              

                 5          Place drip pans under all pump hose fittings (if 
                            applicable) after the hose is hooked up to the   
                            AST and before unloading.                        

                 6          Ensure the fill nozzle is in place in the        
                            appropriate AST appurtenance. In this case, the  
                            fill nozzle is placed in the fill pipe connected 
                            to the round spill container.                    

  **The                                                                      
  following two

                 7          Ensure that the NWS representative and the tank  
                            truck operator remain with the vehicle at all    
                            times during unloading.                          

                 8          Monitor the gauges on the AST and the truck      
                            continuously to ensure the ullage is not         
                            exceeded. If the audible high-level alarm        
                            sounds, stop the unloading of fuel immediately.
