PE certification for an FRP if an SPCC impracticability determination is made
PE certification for an FRP if an SPCC impracticability determination is madeIf the owner or operator of a facility subject to the SPCC regulations determines that the installation of any of the specified secondary containment structures or equipment is not practicable and accordingly provides in the facility’s SPCC Plan an oil spill contingency plan following the provisions of 40 CFR Part 109 pursuant to §112.7(d), must the licensed Professional Engineer (PE) who reviews and certifies the SPCC Plan pursuant to §112.3(d) certify the contingency plan? If the owner or operator has submitted an FRP for the facility in question, must the PE certify the FRP?
PE certification is required for any SPCC Plan that may include a contingency plan following 40 CFR Part 109 when secondary containment is determined to be impracticable. The determination of impracticability involves good engineering practice and compliance with alternative measures in lieu of secondary containment. Therefore, the contingency plan is technically a material part of the SPCC Plan. No PE certification is required for an FRP, even when an impracticability determination is made pursuant to §112.7(d).Frequent QuestionsOil Pollution PreventionFacility Response Plan (Part 112)Rating:58 VotesWas this answer helpful?Frequent QuestionsEmergency Planning and Community Right-to-KnowTier II Chemical Inventory Reporting (EPCRA 312)Emergency Planning (EPCRA 301-303)MSDS Reporting (EPCRA 311)Other EPCRAOil Pollution PreventionDischarge of Oil Regulation (Part 110) Facility Response Plan (Part 112) SPCC (Part 112)ApplicabilityDefinitionsExemptionsIntegrity TestingOther SPCCQualified FacilitiesSecondary ContainmentRelease Notification (EPCRA 304/CERCLA 103)Risk Management ProgramApplicabilityEmergency ResponseFive - Year Accident HistoryGeneral Duty ClauseOffsite Consequence Analysis (OCA)RMP*CompOther RMPPlan Preparation and SubmissionPrevention ProgramProgram LevelsRelated TopicsUnder FRP, what is the definition of a qualified individual?What is the purpose of a Facility Response Plan?
