f. A program to ensure that all reasonable steps are taken to contain and prevent discharge of untreated or partially treated wastewater to waters of the United States and to minimize or correct any adverse impact of the environment resulting from the SSOs, including such accelerated or additional monitoring as may be necessary to determine the nature and impact of the discharge. 7.2 OVERFLOW EMERGENCY RESPONSE PLAN As part of this project, a Port specific OERP has been developed, which is included in Appendix K for reference. The Port’s OERP has been developed to meet the GWDRs and RWQCB requirements and to protect the public health and welfare. The plan shall not supersede existing standard operating procedures, unless otherwise specified by the Executive Director or his duly authorized representative. This section summarizes the major aspects of the OERP as relevant to the specific GWDRs and RWQCB requirements. Response procedures vary depending upon the location of the spill (e.g., Aviation, Maritime, Commercial/Real Estate). For the sake of clarity, the following sections, which summarize the various aspects of the OERP, are organized by Port division. 7.2.1 Aviation Division 7.2.1.1 Primary Notification Procedures Calls from Port tenants or from the public regarding potential overflows in the vicinity of the Oakland International Airport are generally received through the Port Operations Department at (510) 563-3361. The Operations Department is staffed 24 hours per day, every day of the year (including weekends, non-business hours, and holidays). The telephone operator at the Port Operations Department then records the overflow information and forwards the information the Aviation Facilities Maintenance Department. From time to time, operators representing the maritime or commercial/real estate divisions may not be available to field calls regarding potential overflows. For this reason, the Port Operations Department may also receive calls regarding potential overflows in the vicinity of the harbor or commercial/real estate areas. In this case, the telephone operator will record the relevant information and forward it to the appropriate department (e.g., Harbor Facilities Maintenance Department) or individuals as appropriate. Sewer overflows in the vicinity of the Oakland International Airport detected by Port staff in the course of their normal duties shall be reported immediately to the Aviation Facilities Maintenance Department. 7.2.1.2 SSO Response Program Failure of any element within the aviation sewer system that threatens to cause or causes a SSO will trigger an immediate response to isolate and correct the problem. Crews and May 2010 7-2 pw://Carollo/Documents/Client/CA/Port of Oakland/8239A00/Deliverables/Ch07 (FinalA)
equipment shall be available to respond to any SSO location and shall be dispatched to the site of a reported SSO immediately. Also, additional maintenance personnel shall be “on call” should extra crews be needed. Dispatching duties are normally performed by either the Aviation Maintenance/Construction Supervisor, Utilities Supervisor, or the Equipment Systems Superintendent, depending on the nature of the problem. Dispatching personnel should record all relevant overflow information and dispatch response crews, as needed. It is the responsibility of the first personnel who arrive at the site of an overflow in the aviation area to protect the health and safety of the public to the extent possible. Aviation personnel are responsible for identifying the cause of the overflow, requesting additional resources as needed, taking steps to contain or divert the overflow, and taking steps to stop the overflow if possible. Following initial attempts for overflow correction and containment, Aviation personnel should contact the Environmental Compliance Supervisor for guidance on how to proceed. For smaller wastewater spills, Aviation staff may be able to use wash-down water to direct wastewater collected in the spill area back into a manhole and into the collection system. For larger spills, the Environmental Compliance Supervisor typically contacts a Hazardous Material Contractor to clean up and disinfect the affected area. Figure 7.1 summarizes the Aviation SSO Field Response Action Plan. 7.2.1.3 Notification of Regulatory Agencies The regulatory agencies that must be notified in the event of a SSO vary depending on the type of discharge. Likewise, the time frame in which the appropriate agencies must be notified depends on the type of discharge. Table 3.1 and Section 5.0 of the Port OERP provide a summary of which regulatory agencies must be notified and under what conditions. These requirements are the same regardless of the responsible Port division. However, the SSO reporting chain of communication does vary depending upon the responsible Port division. A flow chart identifying the flow of information regarding a potential SSO in the aviation area is provided in Figure 3.2 and Section 5.0 of the Port OERP for reference. 7.2.1.4 Emergency Response Plan Awareness and Training Section 7.0 of the Port OERP contains provisions concerning the distribution, maintenance, and awareness of the provisions presented in that document. Copies of the OERP and any amendments should be distributed to all of the aviation personnel that are heavily involved with the SSMP or OERP programs. It is also recommended that the appropriate aviation personnel be trained concerning the provisions of the OERP.
