C9.1. SCOPE<br />
C9. CHAPTER 9<br />
PETROLEUM, OIL, AND LUBRICANTS<br />
This Chapter contains criteria to control and abate pollution resulting from the storage, transport,<br />
and distribution of petroleum products. Criteria for Underground Storage Tanks (UST)<br />
containing POL or hazardous material products are addressed in Chapter 19, “Underground<br />
Storage Tanks.” POL spill prevention and response planning criteria are contained in Chapter 18,<br />
“Spill Prevention and Response Planning.”<br />
C9.2. DEFINITIONS<br />
C9.2.1. Aboveground Storage Container. POL storage containers, exempt from UST<br />
criteria, that are normally placed on or above the surface of the ground. POL storage containers<br />
located above the floor and contained in vaults or basements, bunkered containers, and also<br />
partially buried containers are considered aboveground storage containers. For the purposes of<br />
this Chapter, this includes any mobile or fixed structure, tank, equipment, pipe, or pipeline (other<br />
than a vessel or a public vessel) used in oil well drilling operations, oil production, oil refining,<br />
oil storage, oil gathering, oil processing, oil transfer, and oil distribution. This also includes<br />
equipment in which oil is used as an operating fluid, but excludes equipment in which oil is used<br />
solely for motive power.<br />
C9.2.2. Below Ground Storage Container. Completely buried POL storage containers,<br />
including deferred USTs, that are exempt from all criteria in Chapter 19, “Underground Storage<br />
Tanks.” For purposes of this definition, ONLY below ground storage containers that are exempt<br />
from requirements of Chapter 19 are counted toward the aggregate thresholds in definition of<br />
POL facility below.<br />
C9.2.3. Loading/Unloading Racks. Location where tanker trucks/rail cars are loaded and<br />
unloaded by pipes, pumps, and loading arms.<br />
C9.2.4. Loading/Unloading Areas. Any location where POL is authorized to be loaded or<br />
unloaded to or from a POL storage container.<br />
C9.2.5. Pipeline Facility. Includes new and existing pipes, pipeline rights of way,<br />
auxiliary equipment (e.g., valves and manifolds), and buildings or other facilities used in the<br />
transportation of POL.<br />
C9.2.6. POL. Refined petroleum, oils, and lubricants, including, but not limited to,<br />
